Ecoterrorismo, un nuevo peligro ambiental
En el verano de 2017, Ruby Montoya y Jessica Reznicek se situaron frente a la Iowa Utilities Board, un organismo público estadounidense, y empezaron a leer ante los medios allí congregados una sorprendente declaración. Confesaban que en los meses anteriores habían saboteado varios oleoductos.

La ecología de la libertad
|
La deslegitimación de nuestros actuales sistemas sociales y políticos descansa sobre una razón que, en ocasiones, puede permanecer oculta: la explotación sin fin de los recursos naturales y la contaminación de nuestro planeta. En ‘Ecología de la libertad’ (Capitán Swing), Murray Bookchin desgrana el peso del medio ambiente en nuestras múltiples formas de vida. ¿QUIERES COLABORAR CON ETHIC?

Ecología de la libertad
Ecología de la libertad Surgimiento y disolución de la jerarquía Sinopsis «La noción misma de la dominación de la naturaleza por el hombre se deriva del dominio muy real de lo humano por lo humano». Con esta sucinta formulación, Murray Bookchin, una voz activa en los movimientos ecológico y anarquista durante más de cuarenta años, presenta su obra más ambiciosa.
From Urbanization to Cities: The Politics of Democratic Municipalism
by Murray Bookchin AK Press 1/4/2022, paperback SKU: 9781849354387 From Urbanization to Cities is a sweeping history of the city, not as a destination for capitalist exchange and individual gratification but as a locus for directly democratic politics. Just as ecosystems rely on participation and mutualism, so must cities--and their citizens--rediscover these qualities, establishing harmonious and ethical social relations.
Death of a Small Planet
We tend to think of environmental catastrophes -such as the recent Exxon Valdez oil-spill disaster in the Bay of Alaska-as "accidents": isolated phenomena that erupt without notice or warning. But when does the word accident become inappropriate? When are such occurrences inevitable rather than accidental? And when does a consistent pattern of inevitable disasters point to a deep-seated crisis that is not only environmental but profoundly social?
Defending the Earth: A Debate
Foreword: Turning Debate Into Dialogue by David Levine, Founder and Director, The Learning Alliance This small but important book grows out of “The Great Debate.” That’s what — for months in advance — many environmental activists around the country called the first public meeting between social ecology theorist Murray Bookchin and deep ecology activist Dave Foreman.
Ecology and Revolutionary Thought
In almost every period since the Renaissance, the development of revolutionary thought has been heavily influenced by a branch of science, often in conjunction with a school of philosophy. Astronomy in the time of Copernicus and Galileo helped to guide a sweeping movement of ideas from the medieval world, riddled by superstition, into one pervaded by a critical rationalism, openly naturalistic and humanistic in outlook.
Thoughts on Libertarian Municipalism
This article was presented as the keynote speech to the conference “The Politics of Social Ecology: Libertarian Municipalism” held in Plainfield, Vermont, U.S.A., on August 26-29, 1999. The speech has been revised for publication. This article originally appeared in Left Green Perspectives (Number 41, January 2000). Age, chronic illnesses, and the summer heat oblige me to remain at home—hence I am very sorry that I cannot participate in your conference on libertarian municipalism.
Social Ecology versus Deep Ecology: A Challenge for the Ecology Movement
Murray Bookchin's critique of 'mystical' deep ecologists and his contribution to the development of a pro-working class environmentalism.
The Bernie Sanders Paradox
The posters that appeared all over Burlington — Vermont’s largest city (pop: 37,000) in the winter of 1980-81 were arresting and provocative. They showed an old map of the city with a label slapped across it that read: “For Sale.” A bold slogan across the top, in turn, proclaimed that “Burlington Is Not for Sale,” and smiling amiably in the right-hand corner was the youngish, fairly well-known face of Bernard Sanders, sans tie, open-collared, almost endearingly shy and unpretentious.
What is Social Ecology?
What literally defines social ecology as “social” is its recognition of the often overlooked fact that nearly all our present ecological problems arise from deep-seated social problems. Conversely, present ecological problems cannot be clearly understood, much less resolved, without resolutely dealing with problems within society.
Social Ecology versus Deep Ecology: A Challenge for the Ecology Movement
The environmental movement has traveled a long way since those early Earth Day festivals when millions of school kids were ritualistically mobilized to clean up streets, while Arthur Godfrey, Barry Commoner, Paul Ehrlich, and a bouquet of manipulative legislators scolded their parents for littering the landscape with cans, newspapers, and bottles.
The Next Revolution
Foreword By Ursula K. Le Guin “The Left,” a meaningful term ever since the French Revolution, took on wider significance with the rise of socialism, anarchism, and communism.
Voice from Vermont: What Murray Bookchin can still teach us about environmentalism
Like any stereotypical twenty-something I feel the compulsion to stay active on social media, browsing Twitter every day or so. Without fail every few days the same command keeps popping up on my feed; “Google Murray Bookchin.” Who was this Murray Bookchin, and more importantly why do left wing environmentalists keep tweeting about him? Well, Murray Bookchin was an environmental political activist and thinker in the US in the 20th century.
Social Anarchism or Lifestyle Anarchism
Part 1 For some two centuries, anarchism — a very ecumenical body of anti-authoritarian ideas — developed in the tension between two basically contradictory tendencies: a personalistic commitment to individual autonomy and a collectivist commitment to social freedom. These tendencies have by no means been reconciled in the history of libertarian thought.
Geopolitical Economy Report
Murray Bookchin is something of a saint in the anarchist community. His ideas on social ecology and what he termed “libertarian municipalism” and “communalism” have influenced generations of self-declared leftists, and he was frequently cited as an ideological force behind the anti-globalization and Occupy Wall Street movements.
What is Communalism?
Seldom have socially important words become more confused and divested of their historic meaning than they are at present. Two centuries ago, it is often forgotten, "democracy" was deprecated by monarchists and republicans alike as "mob rule." Today, democracy is hailed as "representative democracy," an oxymoron that refers to little more than a republican oligarchy of the chosen few who ostensibly speak for the powerless many.

Murray Bookchin "was a true son of the Enlightenment" - Ursula K. Le Guin reflects on
Writer, science fiction icon and radical thinker Ursula K. Le Guin endorses Murray Bookchin’s latest collection of essays, The Next Revolution: Popular Assemblies and the Promise of Direct Democracy for its “respect for clear thought and moral responsibility”.
Libertarian Municipalism: An Overview
Perhaps the greatest single failing of movements for social reconstruction — I refer particularly to the Left, to radical ecology groups, and to organizations that profess to speak for the oppressed — is their lack of a politics that will carry people beyond the limits established by the status quo.
