Bioregionalism and Civil Society addresses the urgent need for sustainability in industrialized societies. It explores the bioregional movement in the US, Canada, and Mexico, examining its vision, values, strategies, and tools for building sustainable societies. Practically, Mike Carr argues for bioregionalism as a place-specific, community movement that can stand in diverse opposition to the homogenizing trends of corporate globalization. Theoretically, the author seeks lessons for civil society-based social theory and strategy. Carr's argument that bioregional values and community-building tools support a diverse, democratic, socially just civil society that respects the natural world makes a significant contribution to the fields of green political science, social change theory, and environmental thought.About the Author: Mike Carr teaches in the Departments of Geography at the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University.
