Gibt es hier #Festivals #NGOs, denen man unbedingt folgen sollte oder die uns unbedingt folgen sollten?

"Kleine Anfrage", große Debatte. Nicht nur die Omas gegen Rechts sind wütend. Die #Kulturzeit hat sich diese Woche mit dem Thema beschäftigt, und unter anderem mit verschiedenen NGOs gesprochen. Hier der Beitrag aus der Sendung zum Nachschauen:

"n his timely new book, French climate activist Clément Sénéchal argues that the environmental movement itself is also partly to blame. Pourquoi l’écologie perd toujours (Why Environmentalism Always Loses) is a survey of the increased pessimism among ecologists, such as could only be expected from someone who has devoted the first years of his adult life to the cause. The book charts how Sénéchal, a former campaigner with Greenpeace France, lost faith in the multinational NGO — and the broader mode of environmental politics in which such groups are embedded. “As I broach middle age, my generation finds itself in an ontologically degraded natural world, in a negative reality,” Sénéchal writes in the introduction. “We still have our lives to lead, but it seems like they’ll only play out in a continuum of dead-ends.”

For the author, the original sin of political ecology lies in its failure to establish itself as a durable mass movement, picking up where broad-based struggles such as the labor movement, feminism, and anti-racism leave off. Despite ever-present warnings about climate change, environmental politics and policy remain the preserve of well-educated and genteel urban dwellers, the “new ecological class” as the late philosopher Bruno Latour lauded in a recent pamphlet. This demographic’s concern and sense of urgency is undoubtedly sincere. But its domination over the movement’s main organizations — from legacy NGOs such as Greenpeace, Oxfam, and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to the tepid Green parties of western Europe — has been politically catastrophic. Since the 1970s, when that organizational ecosystem first took form, environmentalism has diverged from what Sénéchal views as its natural home: in a working-class politics that incorporates the defense of the environment into the critique of capitalism."

"1.700 Wissenschaftler:innen wehren sich gegen die kleine Anfrage der CDU/CSU, in der diese die demokratische Zivilgesellschaft angreift. Deren Arbeit sei 'gerade in Zeiten erstarkender autoritärer Strömungen von zentraler Bedeutung', schreiben sie." (Ticker netzpolitik.org)
