"No Compromise in Defense of Mother Earth!" - Earth First! Earth First! is a group of radical environmentalists that formed in the American Southwest in the spring of 1980, founded by Dave Foreman, Mike Roselle, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, and Ron Kezar, among others. Earth First! quickly came to national attention with their "cracking" of Glen Canyon Dam activist stunt, which was performed and filmed in the spring of 1981. Edward Abbey is considered to be the "literary father" of the group, and the monkey wrench is their ever-present emblem and tool. "Earth First! is the beginning of the new, bold environmental movement. And 'Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal' is its voice" (Dave Foreman, 1980s). The late-1980s and early-1990s were a tumultuous time for Earth First! Law enforcement cracked down on its members, and various internal issues and factions began to form within the group. Earth First! embraced non-hierarchical structures and organic methods of organization and growth, while continuing to focus on direct action in defense of wilderness as its primary focus. Through the 1990's, 2000's, and 2010's, the journal continued to be published in various forms under the direction of a diverse and rotating collective of voices from within the broad Earth First! movement. Regular print publication of the Earth First! Journal under this title seems to have ceased sometime in the early 2020s, though the movement still survives and maintains a presence online and on social media.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - California businessman James Jensen built his fortune on the belief that free markets would empower people and spread prosperity around the globe. After decades of investment in overseas companies, he can contemplate a distant retirement with the satisfaction of knowing he has changed the world for the better. Then an old colleague disappears in war-torn eastern Ukraine, and James must decide how far he will go to help his friend, a onetime leader in the anti-Communist underground spurred to new activism by the ascendant nationalism in his native Poland. As he journeys deeper into the region he once hoped to liberate through capitalism, James encounters a landscape of gangsters, dubious loyalties, and alleged global conspiracies. Will Gustaw Bogutsky's disappearance threaten the legacy of his career bringing free, uncensored thought to former Communist countries Can James retain his own faith in that mission Inspired by American entrepreneur James D. Jameson, Polish publisher Grzegorz Boguta, and their friendship forged in history, Underground Man is a work of fiction exploring the post-Soviet liberal world order and the challenges posed to it by the rise of nationalist movements a quarter century later.…
