About the Book

How do we go about creating a socially just world where we can coexist equitably? What is it like to be cognizant of human-nature family? What are the forces that compromise our humanity? Ethics of Coexistence sheds light on these questions through the activist pedagogy of ethno-photography, brought to light by female research participants in Afghanistan, India, Kenya, and Canada.

Making a case for interrelatedness and conviviality, this book foregrounds stories that have yet to be heard. Evoking a multivocality of responses, ethno-photography opens spaces for the co-construction of knowledge that does not reach a point of closure. It gently prompts us to identify spaces of intervention where we are not mere onlookers but active participants working towards transformative change; what affects "them" impacts "our" lives too.

At a time when our world is entangled in a multifaceted crisis, Ethics of Coexistence maps a pathway for a socially just world by means of civic consciousness.

About the Author :
Parin Dossa is professor of Anthropology at Simon Fraser University.

Review :
“Timeless, but also timely. Ethics of Coexistence is moving, inspiring, and thought- provoking. With accessible writing, this book depicts women as agents making the best they can of their lives, and as human beings worthy of dignity and respect. There are not enough art-based or photography books foregrounding Muslim women, African women, and Indian women in this manner, while also exploring philosophical questions of photography, ethics, suffering, agency, and co-existence.” “In her exceptional new book, Parin Dossa expertly weaves poignant photographs with the spoken-written word in her search for social justice amid the violence, conflict, and fear she has documented for decades in Sudan, Afghanistan, India, Canada, and Kenya. Through her photographs of people and the spaces in which they engage in daily life and living, we more clearly than ever hear their voices and Dossa’s provocation to think again and more deeply across boundaries and borders.” “Parin Dossa’s Ethics of Coexistence takes the reader on a global tour of human and planetary life in order to demonstrate the notion of co-existence, respect, and harmony. The book sits against a larger backdrop both historically and politically, of colonialism, conflict, and power inequalities that have subjected, and continue to subject, vast segments of the planet to suffering. The book also celebrates the many efforts, actions, and vision from the ground up of a different planetary equation, one that works to establish global alliances, support, and recognition. Indeed, it could be said that the book ultimately acts as a hymn to such efforts.”
