Mycelial Politics: Radical Ecology & Renewal in the Anthropocene
“Drawing on radical ecology, Indigenous theory, and mycology, this paper develops mycelial politics—an ecological metaphor grounded in fungal processes of decomposition, interspecies linkage, and renewal. By modeling political networks on fungal hyphae, one may
envision a dialectical process that concomitantly breaks down and decomposes anti-ecological structures as it reconstitutes them into life-affirming forms. This framework highlights circular, post-scarcity economics and interspecies mutual aid, pointing toward a post-capitalist transition where communities regenerate damaged environments and redistribute resources and power in non-hierarchical and liberatory networks.”
