Area of Science:

  • Nursing Studies
  • Philosophy
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Posthumanism offers new perspectives on the human condition.
  • Nursing's historical and contemporary practices are examined through a posthumanist lens.
  • Existing literature often overlooks the deep entanglement of nursing with posthumanist thought.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate central ideas of posthumanisms relevant to nursing.
  • To explore how nursing is already engaged with posthumanist concepts.
  • To identify potential benefits of further integrating posthumanist thought into nursing.

Main Methods:

  • Historical overview of posthumanist movements.
  • Differentiation of key posthumanist theories (transhumanism, critical posthumanism, feminist new materialism).
  • Analysis of nursing practices through the framework of speculative, affirmative ethics.

Main Results:

  • Nursing already exhibits posthumanist characteristics, sometimes critically.
  • Posthumanist ideas offer valuable frameworks for understanding and advancing nursing praxis.
  • The study identifies existing entanglements and potential for deeper integration.

Conclusions:

  • Nursing can significantly benefit from embracing critical posthumanist perspectives.
  • A critical posthumanist nursing approach considers humans, nonhumans, and their interconnectedness.
  • Future nursing practice can be envisioned as speculative worldbuilding, attending to situated, material, and embodied relations.
