Jivan is incorrect to say that ecological feminism and ecofeminism are
necessarily the same thing. Authors such as Chris Cuomo (see Feminist and
Ecological Communities, Routledge) specifically use 'Ecological Feminism'
in contrast to'ecofeminism' for a reason of differential meaning. Now
'feminist ecology' or 'feminist political ecology' is yet another
important differentiation. There is an edited collection called 'Feminist
political ecology' (I forget the authors, but see www.ecofem.org/biblio)
Conclusion: there are numerous ways of concieving and analysing
connections of gender and nature...
