“Social ecology, as it has been taught in Australia and elsewhere, is a broad, deep and tangential (out of the box) area of study. At its heart it imagines conversations across disciplines about social-ecological interrelationships.”

“We can now look more broadly beyond the political economy with which Bookchin was chiefly concerned to develop a more inclusive understanding of social ecology that takes in other dimensions of society, such as gender, race, technology, and cognition.”
