Abstract

En 1974, apparait pour la première fois le mot " écoféminisme " sous la plume de Françoise d'Eaubonne dans son ouvrage Le féminisme ou la mort. Avec ce mot, elle exprime un appel à un " nouvel humanisme " pour sortir du " système mâle ", responsable de la domination des femmes et de la destruction de la nature. Françoise d'Eaubonne propose une lecture écologique du féminisme tout autant destinée aux mouvements féministes en France qu'à ceux de l'écologie politique des années 70.Ce texte offre les clés de lecture pour comprendre et identifier les racines communes de la surexploitation des femmes et de la destruction de la nature. Il est aussi une invitation à détruire la structure du pouvoir patriarcal pour voir s'élever " la gestion égalitaire d'un monde à renaître ". Il permet de situer la pensée de Françoise d'Eaubonne dans le contexte féministe et écologiste de l'époque et son actualité." Le temps de l'écoféminisme ", dernier chapitre du Féminisme ou la mort, est également commenté en présentant les fondements de l'écoféminisme de cet autrice.

Abstract

The focus of Jim dale Huot-Vickery's life is a remote cabin in the northern wilderness of Minnesota's Boundary Waters region. More often that not, it is winter here, a fierce, beautiful season that dominates all living things with its relentless cold grip. This is the inspiration for Winter Sign, the profound story of fifteen years of surviving the seven-month-long odyssey of winter in the far north. Against this backdrop, Huot-Vickery writes authoritatively on the ecology of the area and philosophically about winter's probing of the human spirit. He describes the animals surrounding him - the wolves, deer, fox, and other wildlife who draw him into their age-old struggle. He experiences love, pain, grief, and circles around paradoxes and themes that invade the land and his life: nature's beauty and bounty pitted against danger and death.

Abstract

The election of an unabashedly patriarchal man as US President was a shock for many--despite decades of activism on gender inequalities and equal rights, how could it come to this? What is it about patriarchy that seems to make it so resilient and resistant to change? Undoubtedly it endures in part because some people benefit from the unequal advantages it confers. But is that enough to explain its stubborn persistence? In this highly original and persuasively argued book, Carol Gilligan and Naomi Snider put forward a different view: they argue that patriarchy persists because it serves a psychological function. By requiring us to sacrifice love for the sake of hierarchy, patriarchy protects us from the vulnerability of loving and becomes a defense against loss. Uncovering the powerful psychological mechanisms that underpin patriarchy, the authors show how forces beyond our awareness may be driving a politics that otherwise seems inexplicable.

Abstract

Women's Voices from the Rainforest explores the position of the women whose families are tearing down the rainforest. These women of Central and Latin America have been largely invisible until now, but they are at last turning their voices into action.International development policy and its top-down culture must take much of the blame for environmental and social destruction of the rainforest. Presenting the contrasting results of different methodologies, a comprehensive literature review, and the voices of the rainforest women themselves, told in life histories, the authors argu
