I would say so, yes. If solarpunk is the aesthetic vision of the future we hope for, social ecology provides a political critique and path towards achieving that vision.

Homie, social ecology is about as solarpunk as you can get.

Also: please keep the solarpunk policing to a minimum.

I can also recommend Strong Democracy: Participatory Politics for a New Age by Benjamin R. Barber But start with the preface and the go directly to Chapter 7. The rest is nerd shit for political theory. It can be nice to know but will get quite boring pretty fast. But Chapter 7 will have you jump of your chair and start rebuilding your local community.

There are so many authors to let into my soul and digest. I operate a small 501 ( c ) 3 think tank so I’ve been in the process of letting Paul Feyerabend into my soul. It’s a real emotional move to sit down and start absorbing a new author, to be honest. I was going to start on Marcuse next.

Can you promote or mention your organization? Sounds cool.

Cascadian Laboratories Incorporated “CascaLab” on Facebook pages. Our website is down and our donation mechanism doesn’t work right now. We’re very small and new, since 2022 we were founded. We do almost nothing but feyerabend-inspired research remote from one another. It’s kind of coddiwompling and we try to research ways of making sure we’re not doing armchair research, that we’re actually testing real world things. One thing I test is home economics solutions. We’re actually wondering about creating a federated network of nonprofit think tanks of similar size just meeting the minimum requirements for a 501 ( c ) 3 each of them rather than actually scaling. I picked some of my closest friends, those among them who were most excited about doing it. I used legalzoom to create it.

Wow that sounds cool, I don’t know that kind of research so I’ll search and study about it. Hope you have great success!

Merry Bookchin. I wonder how long the Anti-Civs take to visit as well. The cycle continues.
