Abstract
Ecofeminism is a worldwide academic and activist effort to address the complex inherent connections between environmental degradation and social injustice, principally regarding the construction of gender as it intersects with multiple categories of marginalization and the oppression of women under patriarchy. Ecofeminism is based on the belief that because of the many conceptual and practical links between women and nature as they are conceived in the West, feminism must in both theory and practice include consideration of ecological perspectives, and likewise, environmentalism must include consideration of feminist perspectives. Most branches of feminism and many forms of environmentalism are represented in the spectrum of ecofeminist endeavors that bring these two movements together toward a thoroughly intersectional transformative politics.
