A provocative counterculture that ultimately hoped for the fall of industrial civilization, the movement emerged in response to rapid commercial development of the American wilderness. The earth should come first was a doctrine that championed both biocentrism (an emphasis on maintaining the earths full complement of species) and biocentric equality (the belief that all species are equal). Martha Lee was successful in gaining extraordinary access to information about the movement, as well as interviews with its members. While following Earth Firsts development and methods, she illustrates the inherent instability and the dangers associated with all millenarian movements. This book will be of interest to environmentalists and those interested in political science and sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49681285349616,"sku":"NEW0815603657","price":12.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/earth-first-environmental-apocalypse-religion-and-politics","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
