- Summary:
- Environmental catastrophe demands nothing less than the mobilization of the collective imagination. In Birth of a New Earth, Adrian Parr identifies the emancipatory potential of environmental politics both inside and outside existing structures and within opposing paradigms. Ultimately, environmental politics is the refusal to surrender life to the violence of global capitalism, corporate governance, and militarism. This defiance can serve as the source for the birth of a new earth Book jacket.
