What is Social Ecology? What are your reactions to the readings? What forms of hierarchy are in our world today? Are these hierarchies natural? Are there any better alternatives?

Social ecology promotes destroying all hierarchy and creating a world with equality for everyone, nature and man.

My reactions to the readings are that social ecology is a nice idea but I think we should let it go since it is not feasible.

There are hierarchies between races, genders, those who have and those who have not.

I think certain hierarchies are natural. I think that if a new society where to start up tomorrow with no knowledge of previous societies that they would have their own hierarchies. In a perfect world it would be awesome to get rid of most of these hierarchies but even in a world were everyone is forced to be perfectly equal (which would be terrifying) there would be something that people valued and everyone couldn’t have.
