In the fall of 1991 Roger de la Burdé held an exhibition of some of his art collection at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of the Arts, Anderson Gallery. This is the published catalog for the exhibit, titled "Private Stories, Selections from the de la Burdé Collection". The exhibit featured the paintings of Michael Goldberg, Rainer Gross, Jay Milder, and Jeff Way, and was was held from August 23 to October 20, 1991. A typed letter from Roger de la Burdé to a potential patron, dated September 1991, is signed in black ink by Burdé. . The de la Burdé story , itself, became anything but private, when in March of 1992 he was found dead from a bullet wound to the head.

The catalog here presented is of Contemporary Art, and has striking color reproductions of the paintings. The letter, signed by Burdé in ink, was found pressed between the leaves of the catalog, and is addressed to a potential patron of the arts and typed on his personal stationery, which has printed at the top, Roger Z.

Bright untorn dust jacket. -- This work provides a detailed transnational history of the anti-nuclear movement in West Germany and its border regions during the 1970s and early 1980s. The author argues that this movement was not merely a single-issue campaign but a crucial catalyst for the development of a new "political environmentalism" and the "greening" of democratic practice. The study focuses on cross-border protests against nuclear power plants in locations like Wyhl (Germany), Fessenheim (France), and Kaiseraugst (Switzerland), highlighting the collaboration between German, French, and Swiss activists. It demonstrates how these grassroots movements pioneered new forms of civil disobedience and participatory democracy that directly contributed to the rise of the Green Party. -- Contents: List of Illustrations; Acknowledgments; Note on Translations and Acronyms; Introduction: Taking the Democratic Dimensions of Anti-Nuclear Activism; 1. "Today the Fish, Tomorrow Us": The Threatened Upper Rhine and the Grassroots Origins of West European Environmentalism; 2. A Different Watch on the Rhine: How Anti-Nuclear Activists Imagined the Alemannic Community and United a Region in Resistance; 3. Onto the Site and into Significance? The Wyhl Occupation in Its Contexts, from Strasbourg to Kaiseraugst and Constance to Kiel; 4. "Wyhl and Then What?" Between Grassroots Activism and Mass Protest; 5. Political Questions, Grassroots Answers: Shaping an Environmental Approach to Electoral Politics; 6. Organizing a "Decisive Battle Against Nuclear Power Plants": Europe and the Nationalization of Green Politics in West Germany; Conclusion: Protesting Nuclear Energy, Greening Democracy; Bibliography; Index -- "Greening Democracy explains how nuclear energy became a seminal political issue and motivated new democratic engagement in West Germany during the 1970s. Using interviews, as well as the archives of environmental organizations and the Green party, the book traces the development of anti-nuclear protest from the grassroots to parliaments. It argues that worries about specific nuclear reactors became the basis for a widespread anti-nuclear movement only after government officials' unrelenting support for nuclear energy caused reactor opponents to become concerned about the state of their democracy. Surprisingly, many citizens thought transnationally, looking abroad for protest strategies, cooperating with activists in other countries, and conceiving of 'Europe' as a potential means of circumventing recalcitrant officials. At this nexus between local action and global thinking, anti-nuclear protest became the basis for citizens' increasing engagement in self-governance, expanding their conception of democracy well beyond electoral politics and helping to make quotidian personal concerns political.".…
