Description

Product Description Bioregionalism and Civil Society addresses the urgent need forsustainability in industrialized societies. It explores the bioregionalmovement in the US, Canada, and Mexico, examining its vision, values,strategies, and tools for building sustainablesocieties. Practically, Mike Carr argues for bioregionalism as aplace-specific, community movement that can stand in diverse oppositionto the homogenizing trends of corporate globalization. Theoretically,the author seeks lessons for civil society-based social theory andstrategy. Carr’s argument that bioregional values andcommunity-building tools support a diverse, democratic, socially justcivil society that respects the natural world makes a significantcontribution to the fields of green political science, social changetheory, and environmental thought. Review "The subject is very important. Industrialized societies... are desperately in need of theoretical and practical frameworks that are sustainable as alternatives to the unsustainability of globalization... [The book] makes a significant contribution to the field of 'green' political science and the literature of bioregionalism." - Robert G. Macdonald, Environmental Studies, York University" About the Author Mike Carr has been active for decades in the socialjustice, peace, and ecology movements, in addition to bioregionalism.For the past several years he has taught geography, urban studies, andFirst Nation studies at the University of British Columbia and SimonFraser University.
