Political spirituality in the face of climate collapseof monsters, megaliths, mules, and muck /[electronic resource] :by James W. Perkinson. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2024. - xv, 320 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Part I Meeting Monsters -- Chapter 1. Mirror -- Chapter 2. Metabolism -- Chapter 3. Monstrance -- Part II Monstrous Musing -- Chapter 4. Menace -- Chapter 5. Myth -- Part III Monstrous Mentoring -- Chapter 6. Matter -- Chapter 7. Mountains -- Part IV Monstrous "Meddling" -- Chapter 8. Metal -- Chapter 9. Muck (Mettle) -- Part V Mobilizing Monsters -- Chapter 10. Mites -- Chapter 11. Mules -- Chapter 12. Metropolis.

This book takes its motive force from our contemporary climate crisis. It seeks to reorient human (and especially Christian) understanding, towards a more ecologically-focused, indigenously-informed way-of-living. James W. Perkinson argues that our current eco-climatic and socio-political emergency is the culmination of a 5,000-year history of supremacist "settlement," in which city-states first emergent in Mesopotamia and Egypt not only begin coercively organizing labor into surplus production and ecosystems into inordinate and destructive yields of "goods," but in the process, also simultaneously "deform" the Spirit-World "haloing" of natural phenomenon into outsized service of imperial reach. Perkinson recognizes globalized humanity as an emerging monstrosity destroying both human culture and the world. How we re-envision and revalue, at our critical juncture, our inescapable interdependence with the more-than-human world as peer and teacher and even "elder," is the central theme that throbs below the surface of the very disparate topics commanding attention in each chapter. James W. Perkinson is a long-time activist/educator/poet living more than 35 years as a settler on Three Fires land in inner-city Detroit, teaching social ethics and spirituality at Ecumenical Theological Seminary. He holds a Ph.D. in theology from the University of Chicago and is the author of eight books.
