"The Routledge Handbook of CoFuturisms delivers a new, inclusive examination of science fiction, from close analyses of single texts to large-scale movements, providing readers with decolonized models of the future, including print, media, race, gender, and social justice. This comprehensive overview of the field explores representations of possible futures arising from non-Western cultures and ethnic histories that disrupt the "imperial gaze." In four parts, The Routledge Handbook of CoFuturisms considers the look of futures from the margins, foregrounding the issues of Indigenous groups, racial, ethnic, religious, and sexual minorities, and any people whose stakes in the global order of envisioning futures are generally constrained due to the mechanicsof our contemporary world. The book extends current discussions in the area, looking at cutting-edge developments in the discipline of science fiction and diverse futurisms as a whole. Offering a dynamic mix of approaches and expansive perspectives, thisvolume will appeal to academics and researchers seeking to orient their own interventions into broader contexts"--

"At the college or university level, The Routledge Handbook of CoFuturisms is a standalone text excellent for a Directed Study proposal of CoFuturisms at any undergraduate or graduate level as well as an extraordinarily appropriate text for World Literature or other intercultural and international studies... [ the] entire Handbook may be considered a tool for sociopolitical as well as academic revolutionary thought, a disruption of disempowering assumptions and Eurocentric historicisms to suggest, implant and nurture the potential for transformative self-empowerment and culturally sensitive revolutionary thought."

Taryne Jade Taylor is Advanced Assistant Professor of Science Fiction at Florida Atlantic University. Her research focuses on the politics of representation in speculative fiction, particularly feminist science fiction and diasporic Latinx Futurisms. She firmly believes science fiction and fantasy build paths to a better, inclusive future, which is why her research focuses on diversity, inclusion, and justice as presented in the secondary worlds of the fantastic.
