Talk:Ecofeminism

message: I have made plans to edit this article, here is what I hope to do:
Add to the spiritual ecofeminism section of the page
Add how different religions view women and the environment and how these are interconnected and how this is reflected in today’s society 
The section on material feminism is also short so if I have time I would also like to add to that section

thread_title: Plans to add

message: Hey, I just wanted to say that I will be working on this article for my class. I added some information to the overview section that I thought helped clarify what ecofeminism is! If you have any questions or suggestions I'd be happy to hear them!Hasmit06 (talk) 02:49, 27 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: New Changes

message: Someone added this under the "See also" header:
:EcoFeminism & Globalization: exploring culture, context and religion. Edited by Heather Eaton & Lois Ann Lorentzen
I certainly don't object to this being in the article but because it doesn't appear to be a Wikilink, it probably doesn't belong under the "See also" header, nor is it (yet) and "External link". Perhaps it should go under a new "Refernces" header instead? Would the editor who inserted it care to comment?

thread_title: Carolyn Merchant

message: It's hard to tell which claims are made by authors cited or by Wikipedia editors and first person is inappropriate. Also, this should probably be renamed Schools of Ecofeminist Thought. JCDenton2052 (talk) 14:04, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Schools of Feminist Thought 

message: Three entries at the end are actually journal papers and not anthologies and so should probably be removed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.80.32.8 (talk) 10:12, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Anthologies 

message: Someone went in and edited in some pretty juvenile comments in the introduction. It's pretty obvious what doesn't belong but if someone has a untampered version they may want to edit it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.178.145.30 (talk) 22:03, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Introduction has been tampered. 

message: This isn't a very good article. If someone has the time/desire to re-do it completely, I think a lot of people would welcome that. The "ecofeminist analysis" is very poorly cited and misrepresents what many people understand as the practice as ecofeminism-- this understanding is represented not in scholarly articles but in many widely available ecofeminist anthologies and books by thinkers such as Carol J. Adams and Susan Griffin. There is also a dearth of information on what many believe to be the very important link between ecofeminism and animal rights, especially veganism and anti-hunting. Someone should expand the human/animal relations section, as it's very important, and delete or limit the technology section, as there's no real consensus on that, and few ecofeminists see that as a main issue. I'm surprised it's even in there; perhaps an editor was overly interested. Perhaps a good place to start re-doing the article would be combining these issues in "schools of thought" or an "ecofeminist concerns" heading.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.180.222.243 (talk) 10:52, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article is questionable 

message: This is a good article with really excellent sources. It appears that authors have tried to expand descriptions of this school of thought to different areas such as animal rights and hunting debates. Going through the source list and contributing more information from there would be great to improve the article's depth and to create appropriate boundaries for the article.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rcalder (talk • contribs) 19:20, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

replies: text:  The definition section, as it currently stands, could stand improvement.  It focuses primarily on giving a history of the term, while the best definition it offers is that ecofeminism is a 'loosely knit philosophical and practical analytical set of concepts' which results in leaving a reader who was merely wishing to know what ecofeminism is without an answer.  This also means the "Critiques for and against" fails to make particular sense, even ignoring the dubious biology is impossible without a clear set idea of what ecofeminism is in the first place.  The more specific definition is either too jargony or Word Salad.  I can't really address what issues are present in the criticisms section, aside from it being hard to tell if any of what is discussed are criticisms as I have no idea what ecofeminism is.  75.177.89.14 (talk) 21:20, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alternative Sources: Adding Content and Context 

message: The Concepts section of this page seems to be scattered and underdeveloped. All of the information listed in the section is well-constructed and cited, but it could be so much better represented if the points were more complete and organized. The topics that are covered seem to be: a summary of Ecofeminism (1993), the relation between medicalized childbirth and industrialized agriculture, and a sentence about the binary construction of oppression. These are good, but there is no definition between one concept and the next, as well as the concepts themselves being underdeveloped. Atvedt (talk) 21:14, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Concepts" section lacks organization and completeness 

message: Ecofeminism is a type of feminism. There is no ONE stream that is "the" feminism, and other feminisms can be contrasted with. It can be contrasted with liberal feminism (seems to be what whoever wrote that is trying to say) or white feminism, but it doesn't account for the many, many other types of feminisms out there, making this paragraph pretty incomprehensible to any reader familiar with more than one feminist ideology.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I think this article would benefit from expanding on the “intersectional approach” of ecofeminism. The article currently mentions how modern ecofeminism has focused on more “intersectional questions” briefly at the bottom of the Overview section, however it does not accurately describe what intersectionality is, nor does it explain what intersectionality would do to help understand ecofeminism. I think intersectionality is due its own separate section, as the gender essentialism currently present in the article discredits how women with multiple identities and different experiences can have very different relationships with nature and the environment. Environmentalist Leah Thomas coined the term, “Intersectional Environmentalist” which would be very helpful in gaining more information on how intersectionality and environmentalism correlate; her website, along with a paper written by scholar Giovanna Di Chiro are provided below.

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Foundations of Feminism

message: In his book "Post-Scarcity Anarchism", Murray Boockchin states: "So, too, is the importance of feminism — particularly ecofeminism, which has drawn a good deal of inspiration from the essay. Whether ecofeminism will go beyond the smallgroup syndrome that tends to marginalize it and bypass the liberal politics of the National Organization of Women (NOW) by becoming part of a larger, hopefully libertarian Green movement in the English-speaking world remains to be seen." (emphasis mine).
The edition I had in hand is from the 80s but the book is originally from 1971. This seems to predate d'Eaubonne book.
French version of the article quotes "Ecology or Catastrophe: The Life of Murray Bookchin" as a book supporting this idea too. Zwegenschen (talk) 09:11, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The quote is actually from the preface to the second edition from 1985. Therefore it can't be the first instance of the word, my bad. Zwegenschen (talk) 09:24, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
