• Across America, that kind of new environmentalism is bubbling up in the often-overlooked activities of thousands of citizen groups and millions of citizens. These citizens are building a participatory environmental movement that emphasizes community partnerships that go beyond segmented "stakeholder" conversations. It's not free-market environmentalism, which depends entirely on the whims of the individual and the economy, but it's certainly not command-and-control environmentalism, which seeks to subjugate property rights to the will of the state.
• It's called "hands-on environmentalism," and it's working.
• accountability and economic opportunity, this new vision of environmental activism is challenging the command-and-control movement, which has dominated thought about environmental correctness for the past three decades. The command-and-control movement is built upon a belief that only top-down regulation by an omniscient central bureaucracy can prevent ill-informed, selfish or rapacious people from fouling their own air, water and land. It is a movement that draws on the demonstrably misguided theories of 18th century economists such as Thomas Malthus to perpetuate a belief, unfortunately shared by too many Americans, that there are static limits to the earth's resources and human ability to rejuvenate their world. ...

• REVIEW - Losing Ground: American Environmentalism at the Close of the Twentieth Century by Mark Dowie.
• Losing Ground: American Environmentalism at the Close of the Twentieth Century by Mark Dowie. ...
• He has tackled the American environmental movement out of frustration, believing that it should have accomplished much more than it has. Why environmentalism has failed to live up to its potential occupies much of Dowie's rigorous analysis. He begins with a scathing history of the movement's first stirrings, an effort by well-heeled, elitist white men to maintain wilderness areas for recreational purposes. ... Dowie tracks the rapid devolution of "wise use" into abuse during the Reagan years and the foolish fallback tactics of the green movement, which bureaucratized itself into little more than a direct-mail machine. As critical as Dowie is, he does see hope in the next phase of this phoenixlike movement. He believes that a genuinely democratic form of environmentalism--linked to civil rights, focused on urban as well as rural environmental issues, and involving women and men of all races and cultures--is possible and promising. ...
• Dowie has marshaled an exceptionally broad array of facts and produced a provocative explanation for why a once vibrant social movement is flagging. ... one of the truly important books on a genuinely American social movement. ...
• A recent history replete with compromise and capitulation has pushed a once promising and effective political movement to the brink of irrelevance. ...
• So states Mark Dowie in this provocative critique of the mainstream American environmental movement. Dowie, the prolific award-winning journalist who broke the stories on the Dalkon Shield and on the Ford Pinto, delivers an insightful, informative, and often damning account of the movement many historians and social commentators at one time expected to be this century's most significant. He unveils the inside stories behind American environmentalism's undeniable triumphs and its quite unnecessary failures. ...
• Dowie weaves a spellbinding tale, from the movement's conservationist origins as a handful of rich white men's hunting and fishing clubs, through its evolution in the 1960s and 1970s into a powerful political force that forged landmark environmental legislation, enforced with aggressive litigation, to the strategy of "third wave" political accommodation during the Reagan and Bush years that led to the evisceration of many earlier triumphs, up to today, where the first stirrings of a rejuvenated, angry, multicultural, and decidedly impolite movement for environmental justice provides new hope for the future. ...
• Dowie concludes with an inspirational description of a noncompromising "fourth wave" of American environmentalism, which he predicts will crest early in the next century. ...

• Re: re-defining radical environmentalism.
• first of all, in terms of asking "what is the radical environmentalist movement", I think that if you use the singular like that then you are going to get yourself into all sorts of difficulties both theoretical and practical. ...
• Each particular movement and/or group is best seen as a melange of various different ingredients, and "environmentalism" as just one of these ingredients might be mixed in with a pinch of Marxism, a dollop of feminism, an anti-consumerist stance and so on - this is how we get a rich variety of related movements, not just one monolithic one. What might be possible, however, is to try and ask just what this particular ingredient, that might be present in greater or lesser quantities throughout various movements, and is known as "environmentalism", actually is. ...
• The theoretical part of my research is concerned with whether such a definition of environmentalism is possible. In order to try and so define it I am using the theoretical framework provided by Jurgen Habermas (also using the question of environmentalism to shed some light on the applicability of Habermas's theories). My practical research will take the theoretical conclusions and apply them to both radical and "mainstream" (NGO) environmentalism. I am also interested in the tensions between radical and mainstream environmentalism, and whether NGOs can act as a channel between the two. ...

• The Environmental Movement - Whose Movement??.
• It seems like a somewhat inane question, doesn't it? Of course the environment belongs to everybody, and the environmental movement should, theoretically at least, belong to everybody. Yet the movement remains relatively homogenous - white and middle class - and attracts few individuals of diverse backgrounds. ...
• Environmentalism seems to appeal to a certain lifestyle, a certain set of values and beliefs beyond simply "caring for the earth". The movement lays claim to the recycling symbol, the 3 R' s, the colour green, organic and vegan food, sustainable technology, and numerous other ' green, products, logos and expressions. ...
• Let's take a trip back to the 1960s where the roots of this contemporary form of environmentalism were planted -to the counter- culture hippie movement, which was, in a sense, a large-scale demonstration of teen angst. ... Environmentalism, a cause with catch phrases like "Save the World" and concrete, tangible goals and objectives, was an easy, pre- packaged identity. ... It is this construction of a white counter culture identity that has been central to the environmentalist movement. Moreover, because it is a "counter culture", it follows that the advocates of environmentalism must also have shared experiences within this culture, a White, Western culture. Particularly in a movement which relies so heavily on visual imagery, "colour" plays an important part in defining who is and isn't an environmentalist. Identity, in order to have meaning, is exclusive and distinct, and environmentalism has traditionally been built upon a particular whiteness. The beginnings of an environmental racism and environmental justice movement, however, do point to an emerging shift from the mainstream as people of colour seek to re-define "environmentalism". ...
• However, as the stigma of environmentalism remains "white", people of colour remain the invisible Others who taint the environmentalist identity. At the same time, environmentalism ideally transcends these boundaries and is supposed to be a human movement. The paradox here is that although being white is part of the visible identity of environmentalism, those who are white seldom recognize their "whiteness" or see the implications of their whiteness. ... Interestingly, Wolfgang Montag notes that "one of the moments in the invention of the white race was its universalization in a movement that replaced the distinction between. ... " (1997:285) Environmentalism has been similar to the neo-liberal "multicultural" ideology in some ways (and indeed, multicultural imagery often uses the globe to symbolize the unity of cultures), which asserts our sameness, our connectedness and out human fallacy. ...
