Summary:

"Emerging concerns and contexts of geological thinking seek to bring out how energopolitical interventions into the geokinetic 'unfolding' of the Earth assume new dimensions and directions, owing to the complex and evolving intersections between 'folds' and 'fluxes' of energy in the context of oceans. Written in negotiation with the notion of energopolitics articulated by Dominic Boyer, Remapping Energopolitics calls for ruling out any epistemic attempt to structure the becomings of energy through the transformations of oceans. Aiming to delve deeper into the complex junctures among energy, ocean and earth(ing), epistemic ends of blue humanities are reworked with the help of geophilosophical reading of some Sri Lankan minor writings and in doing so, Remapping Energopolitics makes a series of attempts to reconceptualize 'energy thinking' in line with the differential and deterritorial grammatology of Deleuzo-Guattarian micropolitics, thereby offering a critique of the structured and stratified understandings of 'energy linkages.'"-- Provided by publisher.
