Description
In this essay, I begin defining a solarpunk self as a relational self, or one created out of its relations with others and the world. Given the egalitarianism of solarpunk, we need relations that are ethical, and according to Beauvoir and Levinas, the sexual relation is exemplary of the ethical. As such, I use heterosexual relationships as a case study for the definition of the solarpunk self.
