ABSTRACT
From a posthumanist perspective, the key to recreating another version of economics lies with a transgression of established dualistic thinking and overcoming of those dichotomies which provide the basis for modern capitalism, nation states, and many other unequal/exploitative relationships. The posthumanist critique of the mainstream economic paradigm strengthens the ecological concerns of feminist economics. Posthumanism even more explicitly pays attention to the divisive inferences between humans, non-human animals, the environment, and economics' focus on commodity consumption. Feminist economics is also deeply concerned with the consequences of establishing the "free" individual, the Homo oeconomicus as the economic subject, and with the placing the foremost value on the utilization of private property. While feminist economics is to a large scale concerned with the androcentric divide in economic theory, ecofeminist and posthumanist thinkers are questioning the anthropocentric postulate in modern epistemes which position humans at the center of all scientific modelling, reasoning, and political organization.
