| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Green politics is a political ideology that aims for the creation of an ecologically sustainable society rooted in ecology, social liberalism and grassroots democracy. Developing in the western world in the 1970s, since then Green parties have developed in many countries across the globe, and have achieved some electoral success. Supporters of Green politics, called Greens, share many ideas with the ecology, conservation, environmental, feminist, and peace movements. In addition to democracy and ecological issues, green politics is concerned with civil liberties, social justice, nonviolence and tends to support social progressivism. This book studies green politics including ecological wisdom, grassroots democracy, ecofeminism, Green municipalism, and Global Greens.
