6. Becoming Higher Education with Veterans: A “Post” Introduction to Veteragogy in and with the Anthropocene

Emerging scholarship in posthumanism and new materialism informs the creation of a new paradigm in teaching and learning with veterans, termed veteragogy. Participate to be challenged in a rhizomatic philosophical exploration of the becoming academy within Earth’s Anthropocene. This uniquely structured argument plays on and with the reader as it presents the contextual and conceptual implications of higher education during a destructive man-shaping epoch. This philosophical piece catapults from the theory and methodological works of Rosi Braidotti, Diana Masny, Jasmine Ulmer, and the like, to provide new perspectives and constructions of future academic contributions. Be encouraged to think within and beyond the presented frames through an interaction and intra-action of your personal dynamic future becoming.
