Studies have focused mainly on the radical politics of the period but tended to downplay the extent to which much of the intellectual and social ferment continued into the 1970s and 1980s. This present collection, Canadian Countercultures and the Environment, makes an important contribution to a number of fields. As most of the papers deal with the 1970s and 1980s, they will add to our knowledge of this understudied period. Furthermore, the phenomenon of the counterculture has been the subject of very little academic focus to date. Most importantly, this collection will contribute a sustained analysis of the beginning of key environment debates in the 1970s and 1980s. Papers examine a range of issues related to broad environmental concerns, topics which emerged as key concerns in the context of Cold War military investments and experiments, the oil crisis of the 1970s, debates over gendered roles, and the increasing attention to urban pollution and pesticide use. No other publication dealing with this time period covers the range of environmental topics (activism, midwifery, organic farming, recycling, urban cycling, and communal living) included in this collection. Geographically, this collection covers a range of case studies from the Yukon to Atlantic Canada--it includes two urban examples, and, not surprisingly, places a good deal of emphasis on activities in British Columbia. From the most cursory glance at the history of those who moved "back-to-the-land," it is clear that they engaged with environmental issues in ways that have had a long-term impact on Canadian society."--$cProvided by publisher. =650 \0$aEnvironmentalism$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century. =650 \0$aCounterculture$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century. =651 \0$aCanada$xEnvironmental conditions$xHistory$y20th century. =700 1\$aCoates, Colin MacMillan,$d1960-,$eeditor. =776 1\$tCanadian countercultures and the environment.$dCalgary, Alberta : University of Calgary Press, 2015.$kCanadian history and environment series$kCanadian history and environment series,$w(CaOONL)20159076137 =830 \0$aCanadian history and environment series ;$v4. =856 41$3Full text available online$uhttp://hdl.handle.net/1880/51091
