Gathered Remains: Essays on Wildness, Domestication, Community, and Resistance

Description

"Kevin Tucker's writings have been absolutely essential in the development of an emerging branch of anarchist thinking about the natural world, environmental activism, and the nature of civilization itself. As the ecological crisis we're all facing grows even more urgent-and the mourning and despair that accompanies it even more crushing-this collection couldn't be more timely; the modern environmental movement is searching for answers, and Tucker presents a challenging, and compelling, argument that for too long we simply haven't been asking the right questions." - Will Potter, author of Green Is the New Red Preface by John Zerzan Introduction PART ONE: THE CONSEQUENCES OF DOMESTICATION 1.
