This book develops an ethic of inclusion, resisting the repeated movements in Western thought that sort and order nature's and humanity's kinds into superiors and inferiors, dominants and subordinates, pure and impure, setting some to rule over others, excluding some from the good: men over women, humans over animals, Europeans over non-Europeans, pureblood over mixed. This book undertakes the task of resisting the division of kinds of things into good and bad, superior and inferior, asks us to think of heterogeneous ways to relate to heterogeneous kinds. It undertakes the task of thinking of heterogeneous kinds of creatures, human and otherwise, against histories of domination and subordination, of injustice and harm. This task begins with what Luce Irigaray calls "the question of sexual difference," of men and women composing two kinds of creatures in difficult relations, constituting the human world, instituting a social contract, a social world composed by regulations and laws, domination and subordination; a collective world that includes some and excludes others. This movement around the question of sexual difference opens onto thoughts of heterogeneity, leading from gender through the social world, of race and culture, to the natural world, to multiple and heterogeneous natural kinds. This thought of two genders joined with the immeasurable heterogeneity of the natural and social world leads to animals and other natural creatures and things, to ecological feminism and other ecologies and feminisms, then to thoughts of multiple kinds emerging from other cultures and subcultures. The ethic that includes heterogeneous human and natural kinds I call plenishment in the earth.
