À l'heure où des crises environnementales, économiques, politiques et humanitaires se croisent et menacent jusqu'à la vie sur Terre, il est troublant de constater que nous ne faisons toujours pas de la défense du vivant une priorité. Et si le travail de soin, les modes de vie égalitaires et durables souffraient du même mépris qui a longtemps occulté le savoir et l'action des femmes? Ce livre postule l'urgence de l'écoféminisme. Comprendre les similitudes dans le fonctionnement du patriarcat et de l'exploitation de la nature permet de revaloriser de puissantes stratégies de résistance. Les auteures de ce recueil réfléchissent à la décentralisation du pouvoir, à la décolonisation, aux droits des animaux, à la crise de la reproduction, aux grands projets d'exploitation des ressources, au retour à la terre, à la financiarisation du vivant, à la justice entre générations. Toutes sont engagées sur plusieurs fronts pour freiner la destruction du monde. Et pensent que nous n'y arriverons pas sans rompre radicalement avec l'idéologie de domination.

"Australian feminist philosopher Val Plumwood coined the term "critical ecofeminism" to "situate humans in ecological terms and non-humans in ethical terms," for "the two tasks are interconnected, and cannot be addressed properly in isolation from each other." Variously using the terms "critical ecological feminism," "critical anti-dualist ecological feminism," and "critical ecofeminism," Plumwood's work developed amid a range of perspectives describing feminist intersections with ecopolitical issues--i.e., toxic production and toxic wastes, indigenous sovereignty, global economic justice, species justice, colonialism and dominant masculinity. Well over a decade before the emergence of posthumanist theory and the new materialisms, Plumwood's critical ecofeminist framework articulates an implicit posthumanism and respect for the animacy of all earthothers, exposing the linkages among diverse forms of oppression, and providing a theoretical basis for further activist coalitions and interdisciplinary scholarship. Had Plumwood lived another ten years, she might have described her work as "Anthropocene Ecofeminism," "Critical Material Ecofeminism," "Posthumanist Anticolonial Ecofeminism"--all of these inflections are present in her work. Here, Critical Ecofeminism advances upon Plumwood's intellectual, activist, and scholarly work by exploring its implications for a range of contemporary perspectives and issues--critical animal studies, plant studies, sustainability studies, environmental justice, climate change and climate justice, masculinities and sexualities. With the insights available through a critical ecofeminism, these diverse eco-justice perspectives become more robust" -- From the publisher.

"A philosophical response that brings together feminist and ecological approaches to solving the global environmental crisis that the capitalist economic system has created In the face of ecological catastrophe, neither feminists nor environmentalists have the option of merely supporting an environmental politics that would preserve an imagined nature somewhere outside capitalism. As Johanna Oksala contends, the political goal must be more radical: to challenge the capitalist economic system itself and the mechanisms by which it expropriates life on the planet. Feminism, Capitalism, and Ecology lays the critical groundwork for this political project. It develops a new way of bringing feminist and ecological responses to capitalism together into a cohesive framework. By exposing the systemic logic by which environmental destruction and gender oppression are jointly rooted in capitalism, Oksala establishes the theoretical foundations for an effective political alliance. The traditions of materialist ecofeminism and Marxist feminism are critical starting points. But the rapid rise of biotechnology and the steady increase of precarity necessitate a model of resistance that responds to the distinctive challenges of contemporary biocapitalism. Timely and urgent, this book articulates a theoretically sophisticated response and maps out our real-world options in this existential struggle"--

Ce livre fait entendre des paroles de femmes qui luttent et oeuvrent, depuis l'Amérique Latine, pour la liberté et pourt la vie. Il réunit des textes d'approche théorique ou militante ou encore des poèmes dont l'unité réside dans le terme englobant d'"écoféminisme". Ce terme permet de montrer la proximité entre les mouvements de femmes et ceux de protection de la nature, tous deux inscrits, dans l'espace latino-américain, dans des processus de décolonisation. Ainsi, en dénonçant l'organisation sexiste de la société, ces femmes mettent en lumière les rapports d'appropriation, d'oppression et de destruction qui organisent le monde actuel et qui affectent, d'une façon ou d'une autre, tous les territoires et tous les corps.
