Against itself -- The limits and legacy of radicalism -- Conclusion "Keith Woodhouse explores the political and intellectual history of the radical environmental movement--a movement founded by activists who grew disenchanted with the strategies of the mainstream environmental movement. While mainstream environmentalists (Sierra Club, the Wilderness Society, etc.) emphasized lobbying and working within the political system, groups like Earth First! increasingly championed a more radical approach both tactically and philosophically. Tactically, they embraced direct action--physically blocking or even sabotaging and destroying encroaching industry and infrastructure. Philosophically, they championed views that privileged nature or wilderness over humanity broadly conceived, with little or no regard for the oppressed or impoverished. Such views increasingly set them at odds with other radical movements--feminism, anarchism, etc.--as well as with mainstream environmentalists, all appalled by their simplistic view of complex social problems. Taken together, Woodhouse offers a sophisticated and nuanced picture of modern American environmentalism, showing how it interacted with and was changed by other intellectual, political and social developments over the last half of the twentieth century"-- Geschichte gnd Ökologische Bewegung (DE-588)4115439-3 gnd Politische Beteiligung (DE-588)4076215-4 gnd Environmentalism United States History Environmentalists Political activity United States Radicalism United States Deep ecology fast Environmentalism fast Extrémistes Aspect environnemental ram Écologistes ram Environnement Protection Participation des citoyens ram Défenseurs de l'environnement ram USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd History fast BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 Metadata rights reserved rero Metadata rights reserved vaud zbzmon201901f fran zbzswk201901g tschu idszbz Z2 s1ht rnv RERO RE31020 RE31020 RE310201006 32.15 NELA 215913 VAUD bcud bcud USA 51629 32.15 810010016 NEBIS Z01 Z01 02 2019 A 10775 NEBIS 100 1- Woodhouse Keith Mako (DE-588)1163321540 Verfasser aut RERO 100 1- Woodhouse Keith Mako (IDREF)233858881 cre VAUD 100 1- Woodhouse Keith Makoto aut NEBIS ZAD50 EBI01 Z01 https://opac.nebis.ch/objects/pdf03/z01_978-0-231-16588-4_01.pdf Titelblatt und Inhaltsverzeichnis VIEW pdf SWISSBIB 528971522
