In doing so, he explores how Stengers' constructivism resists the hierarchical binarity characteristic of modernity, constructing the means to create coherence among problematic differences - a creation which could potentially transform the binary constructions of gender, capitalism and climate change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMaxwell, Grant:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Grant Maxwell is a philosopher whose books include \u003ci\u003eIntegration and Difference: Constructing a Mythical Dialectic\u003c\/i\u003e (Routledge, 2022) and \u003ci\u003eDeleuze and Polytheism \u003c\/i\u003e(Bloomsbury, forthcoming).
