Synopsis
The Earth Liberation Front (ELF) has been active in the United States officially since 1997, causing over $45 million in damages to various entities. Continuing to grow as an organisation and expand its range of targets, the ELF has opposed directly individuals, corporations and governments that, in the organisation's view, prioritise monetary gain ahead of the natural environment. Rejecting state-sanctioned means of legal protest as ineffective, the ELF uses economic sabotage to inflict financial suffering on those deemed objectionable. Listed by the FBI in February 2002 as one of the largest and most active US based terrorist group, former ELF spokesman, Craig Rosebraugh, charts the history and ideology of the ELF and explores their tactics, successes and limitations. He shows how the ELF offer an uncompromising vision of an earth under assault from the forces of greed and corporate violence and how they employ direct action against those they deem a threat to the planet. In addition, Rosebraugh examines the issues surrounding when violence is or not justifiable and the short and long term political benefits or setbacks to using violence.
Finally, he offers a trenchant vision of the future of the environmental movement, radical politics and US democracy under the Patriot act. Whatever your view of direct action or violence, Burning Rage For A Dying Planet is essential reading for anybody hoping to understand the mindset and motivations of contemporary radical environmentalism.About the Author

Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Good. The Earth Liberation Front (ELF) has been active in the United States officially since 1997, causing more than $45 million in damages to various entities. As the organization continues to grow and expand its range of targets, ELF has taken an extreme position against individuals, corporations, and governments that, in the organization's view, places monetary gain ahead of the natural environment. Rejecting state sanctioned means of legal protest, ELF uses economic sabotage to inflict financial suffering on those deemed objectionable. In February 2002, the FBI listed the ELF as the largest and most active US-based terrorist group. Although no one has died in any of these operations, ELF's campaign against loggers, SUV dealerships, and others it considers threats to the planet have galvanized and polarized the environmental movement. Former ELF spokesperson Rosebraugh charts the history and ideology of ELF and explores their tactics, successes, and limitations. He shows how ELFers offer an uncompromising vision of an earth under assault from the forces of greed and corporate violence, and how they employ direct action against those they deem a threat to the planet. Rosebraugh also examines the issues of whether violence is or is not justifiable, and the short- and long-term political benefits and drawbacks of using violence. Finally, he offers a trenchant vision of the future of the environmental movement, radical politics, and US democracy under the so-called Patriot Act. Whatever your view of direct action or violence, Burning Rage of a Dying Planet is essential reading for those trying to understand the mindset and motivations of contemporary radical environmentalists.
