Ecological Political Thought: History and Genealogical Paths

Edited by Alberto de Sanctis e Diego Lazzarich

Since the early 1960s, environmental issues have become increasingly prominent in the theoretical-political debate, leading to an innovative integration with some of the major existing political doctrines and philosophies. Eco-socialism, eco-Marxism, eco-pacifism, eco-feminism, libertarian ecologism, green liberalism, and Catholic integral ecology are only some of the articulations of the new ecological political thought over the decades, indicating the relevance held by environmental issues in various political cultures.

The call for papers for issue No. 19 (1/2023) aims to collect two different types of contributions: on one hand, it is intended to solicit the identification of genealogical paths capable of capturing the moment of conceptual redefinition of the human-environment relationship, from the Industrial Revolution onward, and its repercussions on political theory; on the other hand, it is intended to solicit the submission of contributions aimed at tracing a history of ecological political thought, as it has been articulated from the 1960s to the present day.
