'Inspiring […] A strong invitation for all who believe that we can create a more democratic and ecological society' - Debbie Bookchin, journalist, author, daughter of Murray Bookchin

How can we unleash the potential of society to change the course of the climate crisis? Many of us feel powerless in the face of the environmental destruction caused by corporations. However, Practicing Social Ecology shows that there is an incredible source of untapped power in our communities — we just need to learn how to use it.

Drawing from her experience in participating in democratic ecological movements from the revolution in Rojava to the democratic movement in Barcelona, Finley illustrates how to develop assemblies, federations, study groups, and projects with the principles of permanent cultivation.

Examining history, she parallels how social ecologists, such as Murray Bookchin, have guided inspiring struggles around climate and energy, agriculture and biotechnology, globalization and economic inequalities. This guide is ideal for anyone curious about how to challenge relentless capitalist growth through the democratic power of social ecology.
