Ecological Struggles

Ecofascism is an ideology that merges neo-fascism with environmentalism. Ecofascists share many of the same concerns as radical leftist environmentalists in that they want to protect the Earth, as well as animals, from the ecological destruction that has been brought on by capitalism. Where they differ, of course, is that ecofascists aim to do so through tactics that spawn from racist and white supremacist principles.

L’écofascisme est une idéologie qui fusionne le néo-fascisme et l’écologisme. Les écofascistes partagent plusieurs des mêmes préoccupations qu’ont les environnementalistes de la gauche radicale, c’est-à-dire la protection de la Terre et des animaux face à la destruction écologique résultant du capitalisme. La différence entre les deux positions, bien sûr, c’est que les écofascistes visent à atteindre ces objectifs en utilisant des tactiques basées sur des principes provenant du racisme et de la suprématie blanche.

Intersectionality is mentioned in about all of social science literature nowadays. Typically, this concept shows the interdependent relation between generic situations and how different domination systems can overlap. Intersectionality is however, as it presents itself historically, an analytical tool developed especially with the aim to build an understandable holistic view of the critics of capitalism, patriarchy and racism. It is why this concept is so important for environmental struggles.
