Martin Crowley argues that a new conception of agency as both distributed and decisive is necessary in the Anthropocene. A major intervention into ongoing debates in posthumanism, political ecology, and political theory, Accidental Agents reshapes our understanding of political agency in and for a more-than-human world.
