ECOFEMINISM: Women, Culture, Nature

The strengths and weaknesses of the growing ecofeminist movement are critically assessed by scholars in a variety of academic disciplines and vocations. Writers explore the real-life concerns that have motivated ecofeminism as a grassroots, women-initiated movement around the globe; the appropriateness of ecofeminism to academic and scientific research; and philosophical implications and underpinnings of the movement.

Karen J. Warren, Associate Professor and Chair of Philosophy at Macalester College is editor of Ecological Feminist Philosophies and coeditor (with Duane L. Cady) of Bringing Peace Home.
