Abstract
This inter-view reconsiders Donna Haraway's Cyborg Manifesto 21 years after it was first published. It asks what has become of the three boundary breakdowns around which the Manifesto was structured - those between animals and humans, animal-humans (organisms) and machines, and the 'physical and non-physical'. Against this backdrop, this inter-view examines the connection between the Cyborg Manifesto and Haraway's more recent writings on companion species, along with what it means to read or write a 'manifesto' today. Recent notions of the 'posthuman' are also Placed into question.
