In this commentary, I respond to Engelmann, Häkli, Harman and McCormack’s reading of my article, ‘Flat ontology and geography’. In doing so, I argue that a flat ontology of form developed in the article is only a starting point for analysis rather than a fully-fledged theory. In turn, I reflect on how the notion of form can be further developed to identify and analyse mechanisms of inequality that lead to a range of issues for all manner of humans and non-humans.

形式与世界政治

在这篇评论中，我回应了恩格曼，哈克利，哈曼和麦考马克对我的文章“平面本体论和地理学”的阅读。这样做时，我认为本文中提出的扁平形式本体仅仅是分析的起点，而不是成熟的理论。反过来，我思考了如何进一步发展形式的概念，以识别和分析不平等的机制，从而导致各种形式的人类和非人类问题。
