Hi Michel:
My piece on the right-wing's successful demonization of wolves in the Rockies came out today in Earth Island Journal--the cover story.
http://www.earthisland.org/journal/index.php/eij/article/cry_wolf/
The reintroduction of wolves to the Rockies in the mid-1990s represented a political implementation of enchantment.
But the Rockies were the homeland of America's paramilitary right-wing. And they bitterly resented wolf reintroduction, seeing the wolves both in archaic terms as demons and as icons of the federal government. My story is about how right-wing fantasies about wolves swept the region, leading to Congress's recent delisting of wolves from the Endangered Species Act.
See if you think it would work for P2P.
Take care,
Bill
