Permanent Ecological Conflict: A Conversation With Xander Dunlap


Listen Later

Welcome back to The Beautiful Idea, a new project from a collective of several anarchist and autonomous media producers scattered around the world. We’re bringing you interviews and stories from the front-lines of autonomous social movements and struggles, as well as original commentary and analysis.

On today’s show we have a conversation with Xander Dunlap, author of the recent book The System Is Killing Us: Land Grabbing, the Green Economy, and Ecological Conflict, out with Pluto Press. In this conversation we discuss the current state of ecological resistance movements, the problems introduced by eco-Leninism, the concept of permanent ecological conflict, and the notion of home and connection to place in land struggles.

You can find Xander on Twitter and Bluesky.

Xander is also involved in a new and exciting publishing project called Rupture Press, check it out here.
