It is one of the first books to acknowledge the importance of postmodern feminist arguments against ecofeminism whilst persuasively preseenting a strong new case for econolocal feminism. \u003cbr\u003eChris J.Cuomo first traces the emergence of ecofeminism from the ecological and feminist movements before clearly discussing the weaknesses of some ecofeminist positions. Exploring the dualisms of nature\/culture and masculing\/feminine that are the bulwark of many contemporary ecofeminist positions and questioning traditional traditional feminist analyses of gender and caring, \u003cem\u003eFeminism and Ecological Communities\u003c\/em\u003e asks whether women are essentially closer to nature than men and how we ought to link the oppression of women, people of colour, and other subjugated groups to the degradation of nature. \u003cbr\u003eChris J.Cuomo addresses these key issues by drawing on recent work in feminist ethics as well as teh work of diverse figures such as Aristotle, John Dewey, Donna Haraway adn Maria Lugones. A fascinating feature of the book is the use of the metaphor of the cyborg to highlight the fluidity of the nature\/culture distinction and how this can enrich econfeminist ethics and politics. \u003cbr\u003eAn outstanding new argument for an ecological feminism that links both theory and practice, \u003cem\u003eFeminism and Ecological Communities\u003c\/em\u003e bravely redraws the ecofeminist map. It will be essential reading for all those interested in gender studies, environmental studies and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChris J.
