Nove tendencije u razvoju ekoloških pokreta u XXI veku

Abstract

Environmental movements are continuing to demonstrate their relevance and innovative tendencies in the 21st century. Environmental problems are as yet unresolved in this century, the global environmental crisis exists, but the policies of green parties, which arose from environmental movements, have not yielded adequate results. The paper presents the origins of environmental movements as well as their separation from new social movements. In the context of this separation, the paper explores the stages of development of environmental movements from their inception to the present day and compares the activities of these movements, from protest to pacification and marginalization, through "corporate" eco-movements, to the creation of so-called communal eco communities which could figure as environmental movements in the future. Based on the development of environmental movements so far, their future in this century is considered, as well as new tendencies and trends. In this sense, the subject of analysis are movements such as the "Economy for the Common Good", which aims at not only environmental but also complete social transformation, and current and ad hoc movements such as "Extinction Rebellion" and "Fridays for Future". Special emphasis is placed on offshoots, such as "influencer ecologism", "celebrity ecologism" and "tabloid ecologism", that are presented as initiatives that could possibly create environmental movements in the future.
