Critical Ecofeminism (Ecocritical Theory and Practice)

Australian feminist philosopher Val Plumwood coined the term â€œcritical ecofeminismâ€ to â€œsituate humans in ecological terms and non-humans in ethical terms,â€ for â€œthe two tasks are interconnected, and cannot be addressed properly in isolation from each other.â€ Variously using the terms â€œcritical ecological feminism,â€ â€œcritical anti-dualist ecological feminism,â€ and â€œcritical ecofeminism,â€ Plumwoodâ€™s work developed amid a range of perspectives describing feminist intersections with ecopolitical issuesâ€”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, Plumwoodâ€™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 â€œAnthropocene Ecofeminism,â€ â€œCritical Material Ecofeminism,â€ â€œPosthumanist Anticolonial Ecofeminismâ€â€”all of these inflections are present in her work.

Here, Critical Ecofeminism advances upon Plumwoodâ€™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.
