Just as rare species are disappearing at an alarming rate, so whole
areas of human thought, feeling and sensibility are becoming
extinct through the power of an infantalizing mass media and the
social exclusion of the old, the young and the unemployed.
Extending the definition of ecology to encompass social relations
and human subjectivity as well as environmental concerns, Guattari
argues that the ecological crises that threaten our planet are the
direct result of the expansion of a new form of capitalism and that
a new ecosophical approach must be found which respects the
differences between all living systems.
A powerful critique of capitalism and a manifesto for a new way
of thinking, The Three Ecologies is also an ideal introduction to
the work of one of Europe's most radical thinkers. This edition of
The Three Ecologies includes a chronology of Guattari's life and
work, introductions to both his general philosophy and to the work
itself and extended notes to the original text.
