ABSTRACT

If red-greens would like to push ecocentrism towards Marxist analysis, greengreens often remain stubbornly rooted in anarchist principles (see Table 4.1). Most of the latter do not often acknowledge their anarchist roots, for instance those here described as ‘mainstream’ greens, including the ‘deep ecologists’ (Gaians). But they are decidedly there: implicit in the social ideals and prescriptions of such greens. It is mainly the communitarian and anarchistfeminist ecocentrics who make their anarchism explicit.
