" In 2006, about 69 million U.S. households had pets, giving homes to around 73.9 million dogs, 90.5 million cats, and 16.6 million birds, and spending more than 38 billion dollars on companion animals. As never before in history, our pets are truly members of the family. But the notion of companion species knotted from human beings, animals and other organisms, landscapes, and technologies includes much more than companion animals. In When Species Meet, Donna J. Haraway digs into this larger phenomenon to contemplate the interactions of humans with many kinds of critters, especially with those called domestic. At the heart of the book are her experiences in agility training with her dogs Cayenne and Roland, but Haraway's vision here also encompasses wolves, chickens, cats, baboons, sheep, microorganisms, and whales wearing video cameras. From designer pets to lab animals to trained therapy dogs, she deftly explores philosophical, cultural, and biological aspects of animal human encounters. In this deeply personal yet intellectually groundbreaking work, Haraway develops the idea of companion species, those who meet and break bread together but not without some indigestion. ?A great deal is at stake in such meetings, she writes, and outcomes are not guaranteed. There is no assured happy or unhappy ending-socially, ecologically, or scientifically. There is only the chance for getting on together with some grace. Ultimately, she finds that respect, curiosity, and knowledge spring from animal human associations and work powerfully against ideas about human exceptionalism."--Site web de l'éditeur

'Modest_Witness@Second_Millennium. FemaleMan_Meets_OncoMouse' explores the roles of stories, figures, dreams, theories, facts, delusions, advertising, institutions, economic arrangements, publishing practices, scientific advances, and politics in twentieth- century technoscience. The book's title is an e-mail address. With it, Haraway locates herself and her readers in a sprawling net of associations more far-flung than the Internet. The address is not a cozy home. There is no innocent place to stand in the world where the book's author figure, FemaleMan, encounters DuPont's controversial laboratory rodent, OncoMouse. Haraway sees the world of contemporary technoscience as a drama. Information sciences and life sciences are at the center of the dramatic action. Scenes are set in landscapes where maps of human genetic differences are stored in databases, racialized bodies are reconfigured by morphing for photographs in popular magazines, and transgenic mice important to breast cancerresearch are patented intellectual property. The actors are many, and not all are human. Beginning with the Modest Witness, the key figure in the Science Revolution, Haraway shows us the trouble lurking in race and gender- marked practices for attesting to matters of fact. In later scenes, Haraway explores the kinship relations among the many cyborg creatures produced in the late twentieth-century--in nuclear research, genetic engineering, reproductive technologies, computer-mediated representational practices, and mutations in biological approaches to "race."

Vivre avec le trouble, c'est entrer dans un monde étrange – le nôtre – où le temps, sorti de ses gonds, se retrouve ballotté dans un tourbillon de rencontres multispécifiques, d'appropriations violentes, de créations collectives sur fond de désastres climatiques. Un monde où les pensées émanent de symbiotes à corps multiples, visqueux et tentaculaires. Où la Terre est animée de forces aussi puissantes que terrifiantes. Où l'Humain, décomposé en humus, composte avec les autres espèces. Résolument impures, les histoires que raconte Donna Haraway mélangent allègrement les règnes, les époques, les registres, les matières et les disciplines – mais elles se situent toujours quelque part. Ce sont des histoires aventureuses, aussi denses de collaborations que de conflits, de terreurs que de possibles réjouissants. Ce sont des histoires de récupérations partielles, pour bien vivre et bien mourir sur une Terre abîmée.

Ce livre propose un pari audacieux : prendre notre relation avec les chiens au sérieux et apprendre "une éthique et une politique dévolues à la prolifération de relations avec des êtres autres qui comptent". Car la catégorie des espèces compagnes est bien plus vaste que celle des animaux de compagnie, elle inclut en effet le riz, les abeilles, la flore intestinale, les tulipes... "Vivre avec les animaux, investir leurs histoires et les nôtres, essayer de dire la vérité au sujet de ces relations, cohabiter au sein d'une histoire active : voilà la tâche des espèces compagnes." Pas de grands récits, donc, mais des histoires, dont le but est avant tout, dit Donna Haraway, de mettre des bâtons dans les roues au projet humain d'écrire seuls cette histoire. Des histoires d'amour, mais également de pouvoir, de conflits raciaux et d'idéologies coloniales, des histoires qui aident à élaborer des manières positives de vivre avec toutes les espèces qui sont apparues comme nous sur cette planète. Quelle est notre capacité humaine à construire des relations d'altérité qui ne soient pas marquées par des rapports de domination, mais par des relations de respect, d'affection, d'amour - sans qu'il s'agisse d'anthropocentrisme ou d'anthropomorphisme ? Voilà l'une des questions centrales que soulève ce livre devenu incontournable
