| THE LAST REFUGE, Patriotism, Politics, and the Environment in an Age of Terror. Orr. Transcending conventional ideological labels, David Orr analyzes the political machinery that connects Americans’ fundamentally honorable ideals with public policy. Offers an empowering vision of a second American Revolution that peaceably throws off the inter-generational tyranny imposed by an unsustainable present generation over successive generations. Like the first American Revolution, this one will draw its inspiration from a new worldwide Enlightenment, already underway, based on the supremacy of human rights over those of corporations, on the scientific understanding of ecological systems and economics, and on a capitalism that values natural as well as financial capital. This second revolution, will require a new, “higher patriotism” whose hallmark is not blind allegiance to a particular ideology or administration, but rather a commitment to long-term justice, equity, and sustainability. #EE-13087, hardcover.
