Ecopolitics is a study of environmental awareness - or
non-awareness - in contemporary French theory. Arguing that it is
now impossible not to think in an ecological way, the author traces
the roots of today's concern for the environment back to the
intellectual climate of the late 50s and 60s. Major thinkers of
1968, the author argues, changed the way we think the world; this
owes much to an ecological awareness that remains at the heart of
issues concerning cultural theory in general. The book points to
critiques of ecology in the work of Luc Ferry and Jean Baudrillard
before turning to more complicated ecological awareness primarily
in French thought. The author considers key texts by influential
figures such as Michael Serres, Paul Virilio, Gilles Deleuze and
Felix Guattari, Michel de Certeau, Helene Cixous and Luce Irigaray.
The volume rehabilitates some ecological components of French
intellectual thought since the 1960s, and reassesses French
poststructural thinkers who explicitly deal with ecology in their
work.
