This new edition of Ecofeminism: Feminist Intersections with Other
Animals and the Earth begins with an historical, grounding overview
that situates ecofeminist theory and activism within the larger
field of ecocriticism and provides a timeline for important
publications and events. Throughout the book, authors engage with
intersections of gender, sexuality, gender expression, race,
disability, and species to address the various ways that sexism,
heteronormativity, racism, colonialism, and ableism are informed by
and support animal oppression. This collection is broken down into
three separate sections: -Affect includes contributions from
leading theorists and activists on how our emotions and embodiment
can and must inform our relationships with the more-than-human
world -Context explores the complexities of appreciating difference
and the possibilities of living less violently -Climate, new to the
second edition, provides an overview of our climate crisis as well
as the climate for critical discussion and debate about ecofeminist
ideas and actions Drawing on animal studies, environmental studies,
feminist/gender studies, and practical ethics, the ecofeminist
contributors to this volume stress the need to move beyond binaries
and attend to context over universal judgments; spotlight the
importance of care as well as justice, emotion as well as reason;
and work to undo the logic of domination and its material
implications.
