Course Description:
Why are environmental movements necessary? Are they effective? What are the goals of environmental movements and how should they achieve these goals? This first-year seminar introduces students to the histories, development, and contemporary work of environmental movements in the United States. The course will use primary and secondary texts in connection with multiple movements, ranging from conservation and sustainability to environmental justice, indigenous, and counter-movements, to explore a variety of issues, goals, and strategies these movements have pursued. |
