With their remarkable electoral successes, Green parties worldwide
seized the political imagination of friends and foes alike.
Mainstream politicians busily disparage them and imitate them in
turn. This new book shows that ‘greens’ deserve to be taken more
seriously than that.
This is the first full-length philosophical discussion of the
green political programme. Goodin shows that green public policy
proposals are unified by a single, coherent moral vision – a ‘green
theory of value’ – that is largely independent of the `green theory
of agency’ dictating green political mechanisms, strategies and
tactics on the one hand, and personal lifestyle recommendations on
the other. The upshot is that we demand that politicians implement
green public policies, and implement them completely, without
committing ourselves to the other often more eccentric aspects of
green doctrine that threaten to alienate so many potential
supporters.
