	Takis Fotopoulos - Globalisation, the reformist Left and the Anti-Globalisation 'Movement'
		Although the authors’ explicit aim is to attack the globalisation thesis that is put forward by the nationalist Right, their study represents in effect an argument in favour of the sort of strategy and policies suggested today by the reformist Left.
		It is therefore clear that when the authors argue that “far from the nation-state being undermined by the processes of internationalisation, these processes strengthen the importance of the nation state in many ways”,[xlv] what they have in mind is not effective social controls to protect labour and the environment, but, mainly, ‘regulatory controls’.
		The ecofeminist way out of such an economy is a kind of utopian reformism which is based on the assumption that the present globalisation is reversible, even within the system of the market economy.

		Ecofeminists also criticize Western lifestyle choices, such as consuming food that has travelled thousands of miles and playing sports (like golf and bobsledding), which inherently require ecological destruction.
		With ecofeminist ideals and pagan practices, sometimes these projects are seen as a form of primitivism.
		For instance, a number of ecofeminists advocate the use of technologies such as solar power as a way to stay off 'the grid', which they regard as more important than not relying on poisonous industrial processes or materials.

		In this polemical essay, the author argues that mainstream Judaism is unabashedly anthropocentric in its attitude toward nature, and he is critical of Kabbalistic and Hasidic perspectives.
		Influenced by process metaphysics and ecology, the authors call for rejection of the mechanistic model of the living organism and evolution and argue for a "religion of life" that recognizes the instrinsic value of all beings.
		The objective of the authors is to reawaken an appreciation of ancient myths of the Goddess and in this way to assist contemporary civilization in recovering a sacramental view of nature and a full integration of the feminine.

	Reproductive Technologies
		They also argue that the use of such technologies entrenches the mindset by which human manipulation of the natural environment is accepted, justifying environmental degradation and maintaining the incorrect assumption that humans are not interrelated with nature.
		Other Ecofeminists argue that women have a right to reproductive technology because their bodies belong to them.

	Social Movements and Culture
		Like all typologies, of course, it is a crude device, and I should say quickly that much, if not most, ecocriticism in practice combines two or more of these "schools." The schools listed are meant to correspond roughly to major sectors in the history and present of environmental movements.
		Since all of these schools are still relatively undefined, I find the best way to characterize each is through a list of the typical questions it seeks to address, rather than definitive positions it takes.
		Ecofeminist critics would extend this to the patriarchal power and arrogance that threatens the world with the bombs being putatively "tested" on this landscape.

	Saleha Erdmann :: Development Studies
		ecofeminist arguments are meant not only to uncover the connections between misogyny, sexism, or institutions of gender and the exploitation of the so called natural world, but also to make explicit connections among these and other forms of oppression.
		Many ecofeminists are also aware of the issues of cultural generalizations and a rejection of science, while these issues have not been as sufficiently addressed as essentialism has within the project.
		Because the bulk of ecofeminist theory is based on the idea that Western patriarchy is unacceptable and prompts oppression and domination, it is necessary to analyze where Western patriarchy came from.

	Toward a normative politics of global transformation - Global Policy Forum - Globalization (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-02)
		According to these authors new nations, states and movements, in the context of UN fora and elsewhere, have gained increasing access to an ongoing dialogue on global values in global governance, thereby shaping definitions of values that have acquired growing global relevance and legitimacy.
		Substantiating their argument these authors firstly point to the fact that it is now increasingly accepted by peace movements that the full meaning of peace does not only pertain to the notion of non-violence, but also to development, human rights and ecological balance.
		Putting authors like Coate, Alger and Lipschutz's exposition of global values construction in further relative perspective, mention should also be made of the growing group of critical theorists from the field of international political economy (IPE), but also critical globalisation theorists from other fields.

	Advancing Sisterhood?: Interracial Friendships in Contemporary Southern Fiction - Book Review MELUS - Find Articles
		Thus Monteith carefully interrogates the texts of contemporary authors such as Kaye Gibbons, Ellen Douglas, and Carol Dawson (among others, several of whom have graced the infamous Oprah book club list at one time or another) in order to examine their representations of race and its impact on women's emotional connections to one another.
		She suggests that contemporary white women authors, motivated by the desire for a "communitarian feminist politics based in friendship," are testing the extent to which individual interracial friendships might operate as an avenue for widespread racial reconciliation (74).
		In her chapter on Lane von Herzen's ecofeminist novel Copper Crown, Monteith suggests that while Von Herzen constructs a pastoral utopia that fosters cooperation between its fl and white female protagonists, her use of magical realism and socially isolated settings problematically defer any sustained exploration of racial tension between the characters.

	Social Ecology versus Deep Eclogy
		Eclecticism would be too mild a word for this kind of hodgepodge, one that seems shrewdly calculated to embrace everyone under the rubric of deep ecology who is prepared to reduce ecology to a religion rather than a systematic and deeply critical body of ideas.
		If we look beyond the spiritual "Eco-la-la" (to use a word coined by a remarkable ecofeminist, Chaia Heller), and examine the context in which demands like decentralization, small-scale communities, local autonomy, mutual aid, communalism, and tolerance are placed, the blurred images that Sessions and Devall create come into clearer focus.
		The doctrine, its author, and its overstuffed wealthy beneficiaries were bitterly fought by the great English anarchist William Godwin, the pioneering socialist Robert Own, and the emerging Chartist movement of the English workers in the early nineteenth century.

	Psychology & The Environment -- Capstone Projects 97
		Ecofeminists also feel that the domination of the environment by man is linked to the domination of women by man.
		In doing so ecofeminist scholars seek for the roots of dualism, a widely practiced philosophical approach, as well as possibilities for alternative value systems that would allow for liberation of women and the environment.
		As stated in one of the ecofeminist web sites, Eve On Line: the kaleidoscopic lens of ecofeminism includes a prepatriarchal historical analysis, an embracement of spirituality, and a commitment to challenging racism, classism, imperialism, heterosexism, ageism, ableism, anthropocentrism, speciesism and other forms of oppression.
