ABSTRACT
This chapter describes how solidarity between the movements based on recognizing each creates social space for the other by undermining a common obstacle, anthropocentric ideology. Moral pluralism recognizes more than one source of value, more than one reason for treating a being respectfully. It may call "expansive pluralism" goes beyond moral pluralism by not just recognizing diversity but by welcoming and seeking out diverse types of value. Hierarchical dualism uses to legitimate the rankings of the great chain of being by associating those higher on the chain with the "superior" poles and, conversely, the lower on the chain with the inferior poles. It is striking find the sort of generalism even among environmentalists such as Callicott and Taylor, who are not extensionists in other ways. Exploitative relations continually generate conflict, and the commitment to the class structure renders a lasting resolution of the conflicts unthinkable.
