Rethinking Green Politics - Nature, Virtue and Progress

Informationen zum Autor John Barry is in the Department of Politics, Keele University. Klappentext Rethinking Green Politics offers a wide-ranging and critical analysis of the theoretical framework that underpins the values, principles and concerns of contemporary green politics. John Barry challenges the ecocentric and anarchistic traits of much green political ideology; proposes that we rethink green politics by refocusing attention away from ideology to theory; and develops an important critique and reconstruction of existing conceptualizations such as those around 'deep' and 'shallow' green thinking, or 'ecologism' and 'environmentalism'. Zusammenfassung Focuses on topics in 'green' political theory and educates those anxious to be good citizens and challenges those responsible for public policy! This analysis of ecological morality! individual stewardship! and collective responsibility provides an original and seminal treatise that advances the discipline as a whole.
