The Genealogy of the Posthuman provides an online companion to posthumanism’s histories and current concerns. Addressing an expanding range of themes and ideas, it is made up of entries informed by the objectives of re-examination and critique of posthumanism’s acknowledged, unsuspected and evolving dimensions. The Genealogy is an open and international project and welcomes interventions by academics, researchers and doctoral students working on the posthuman and related fields.
