Hello,
Green Web Bulletin #70 "My Path to Left Biocentrism: Part III - Handling
Contradictions" is now available. This bulletin is
approximately 5,500 words long (35.5 kb), including endnotes. It can be obtained from
the Green Web at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The bulletin discusses some contradictions which emerged among people who in some way
support deep ecology and left biocentrism, both theoretically and in its application
to various environmental issues. It also discusses contradictions arising from
discussions and mutual support activities with animal rights
supporters and ecofeminists. The analysis and description of contradictions draws
heavily on the discussions which have taken place in the internet discussion group
"left bio" over a
three-year period. The interpretation of these discussions is my own.
The following is an outline:
- Introduction
- Social Change and Revolutionary Theory
- Primary and Secondary Contradictions
- Non-Violence
- Spiritual Considerations
- Unity and Differences
- Animal Rights
- Ecofeminism
- Right Ecocentrism
- Conclusion
For the Earth,
David Orton
