With their remarkable electoral successes, Green parties worldwide seized the political imagination of friends and foes alike. Mainstream politicians busily disparage them and imitate them in turn. This new book shows that 'greens' deserve to be taken more seriously than that. This is the first full-length philosophical discussion of the green political programme. Goodin shows that green public policy proposals are unified by a single, coherent moral vision - a 'green theory of value' - that is largely independent of the `green theory of agency' dictating green political mechanisms, st

Iedereen kent intussen de prangende problemen van onze planeet: het klimaat warmt op, energie wordt duurder, water en grond raken vervuild, de biodiversiteit wordt aangetast en heel veel mensen leven in armoede en/of migreren. Het klassieke groene antwoord hierop is: minder consumeren, kleinschaliger denken, minder menselijk ingrijpen in de natuur. Maar daarmee zullen we het niet redden, integendeel. We moeten kiezen voor groen denken 2.0. Inzetten op economische groei en vooral op technologie: precisielandbouw, kweekvlees, nieuwe vormen van kernenergie, geothermie, het uit de lucht halen van CO2, CRISPR enz. Meer welvaart creëren en tegelijk de wereld redden: dat moet onze ambitie zijn. Zonder taboes en doemdenken. De verzoening van milieu, markt, menselijk vernuft en welzijn. Laat dit boek een blauwdruk zijn voor een hoopgevend toekomstbeeld. Eén waar meer welvaart op een schonere planeet mogelijk moet kunnen zijn. Filosoof Thomas Rotthier en bio-ingenieur Jan Deschoolmeester zijn mede-oprichters van ecomodernisme.be.Bron: www.bookspot.be

This title explores the complex intellectual and cultural roots of Greenpeace, tracing the development of the organization from its emergence amidst the various protest movements of the 1950s and 1960s to the end of its volative, dramatic, and at times quirky first decade in 1980.

Today opponents of large-scale dam projects in China, rather than being greeted with indifference or repression, are part of the hydropower policymaking process itself. What accounts for this dramatic change in this critical policy area surrounding China's insatiable quest for energy? In China's Water Warriors, Andrew C. Mertha argues that as China has become increasingly market driven, decentralized, and politically heterogeneous, the control and management of water has transformed from an unquestioned economic imperative to a lightning rod of bureaucratic infighting, societal opposition, and open protest. Although bargaining has always been present in Chinese politics, more recently the media, nongovernmental organizations, and other activists-actors hitherto denied a seat at the table-have emerged as serious players in the policy-making process. Drawing from extensive field research in some of the most remote parts of Southwest China, China's Water Warriors contains rich narratives of the widespread opposition to dams in Pubugou and Dujiangyan in Sichuan province and the Nu River Project in Yunnan province. Mertha concludes that the impact and occasional success of such grassroots movements and policy activism signal a marked change in China's domestic politics. He questions democratization as the only, or even the most illuminating, indicator of political liberalization in China, instead offering an informed and hopeful picture of a growing pluralization of the Chinese policy process as exemplified by hydropower politics. For the 2010 paperback edition, Mertha tests his conclusions against events in China since 2008, including the Olympics, the devastating 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, and the Uighar and Tibetan protests of 2008 and 2009.
