Abstract
The ecological imbalances of our time raise a number of questions that challenge every conventional social theory. The split between humanity and nature; the notion that man can dominate nature (a notion that derives from the domination of human by human); the role of the market economy in developing technologies that can undo the work of natural evolution in only a few generations; the absurdity of dealing with ecosystems and food webs in hierarchical terms — all of these issues raise immense possibilities for developing a radical social ecology that transcends orthodox left ideologies as well as the crudities of sociology.Keywords
