Studies of the radical environmental politics of the 1960s have
tended to downplay the extent to which much of that countercultural
intellectual and social ferment continued into the 1970s and 1980s.
Canadian Countercultures and the Environment adds to our knowledge
of this understudied period. This collection contributes a
sustained analysis of the beginning of major environmental debates
in this era and examines a range of issues related to broad
environmental concerns, topics which emerged as key concerns in the
context of Cold War military investments and experiments, the oil
crisis of the 1970s, debates over gendered roles, and the
increasing attention to urban pollution and pesticide use. No other
publication dealing with this period covers the wide range of
environmental topics (among others, activism, midwifery, organic
farming, recycling, urban cycling, and communal living) or
geographic locales, from Yukon to Atlantic Canada. Together, they
demonstrate how this period influenced and informed environmental
action and issues in ways that have had a long-term impact on
Canadian society.
