The alternative is a challenge to the ontological framework of neoliberalism – by breaking away from this political ontology can we introduce alternative means in the political arena including justice and solidarity.

If we accept my analysis of the relationship between neoliberalism and political violence, however, irrational violence............it is simply a losing strategy, and this, paradoxically, remains its appeal and its significance.

Failure to confront the values and assumptions of neoliberal market rationality fortifies a socio-political structure founded on racism, sexism, classism, and anthropocentrism that makes planetary destruction and violence inevitable

It is fitting to begin my words about Richard Kahn’s Critical Pedagogy, Ecoliteracy, and Planetary Crisis............, without attention either to the health of the planet or to the well-being of all species with whom we walk the earth.
