Socialist ecology: the life and death of Chico Mendes

Originally published in our 2000 pamphlet on environmental and climate politics, We only want the earth. On 22 December, 1988, in the north-western Brazilian town of Xapuri, in Acre state, Chico Mendes was assassinated. The leader of the local union of rubber tappers, active member of the growing Workers’ Party, and advocate of “socialist ecology”, Mendes was the sworn enemy of the landowners against whom he had fought and organised for workers’ rights all his life.
