Conclusion: Practical and Theoretical Implications of Right-Wing Ecology. 330 $aIn this new edition of his now classic 1999 book, Jonathan Olsen explores the relationship between the far right and the environment, or what he terms "right-wing ecology." Arguing that radical environmentalism is not exclusively a domain of the left, Olsen shows how many of Germany's far right parties and groups ground their ecological ideology in an anti-universalist anthropology which sees human beings as naturally 'rooted' in specific nations and cultural traditions. Pollution in this discourse signifies not only the disruption of the natural world, but the social world as well, thus providing an environmental justification for an anti-immigrant politics which finds resonance outside the specific milieu of the far right. A rigorously theoretical book, Nature and Nationalism challenges our understanding of the deeply ambiguous ways in which 'nature' functions to legitimate a wide variety of political ideas. Jonathan Olsen is Professor and Chair of the Department of Social Sciences and Historical Studies at Texas Woman's University, USA. . 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects 606 $aEuropean Politics 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aEnvironmental Policy 606 $aEnvironmental Social Sciences 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects. 615 14$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aEnvironmental Policy. 615 24$aEnvironmental Social Sciences. 676 $a363.70943 700 $aOlsen$b Jonathan$01780748 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910918700003321 996 $aNature and Nationalism$94305175 997 $aUNINA
