title = {Fictions of Ecoterror: Radical Environmentalism in US-American Literature and Film},
year = {2026},
note = {Since the emergence of radical environmentalism, two major shifts in
the cultural imaginary of the United States can be identified: shaped
by 9/11 on the one hand, and the intensifying climate crisis on the
other. Sarah Marak examines these shifts analyzing fictional
representations in US-American literature and film from 1975 to 2023.
Drawing on a range of texts from The Monkey Wrench Gang to How to Blow
Up a Pipeline, she demonstrates how fictional portrayals of
eco-activists oscillate between reaffirming dominant understandings of
environmentalism as »ecoterrorism« and critically intervening in
prevailing terrorism discourses that reassess radical activism.},
