ABSTRACT
Chapter 10 investigates some of the ways we can approach a more ethical framework for population management, ecological sustainability and belonging by bringing together different philosophic and analytic approaches that view non-violent cohabitation as the key to ‘doing population’ in a precarious world. Beginning with the idea that population is often the object of popular attitudes and how these might be changed, it is argued here that the ethical obligation to cohabit the world is valuable for thinking about the relationship between population, identity, space, hospitality, ecology and belonging.
