Jaques Ellul

1912-1994

Jacques Ellul. the philosopher, has also been a brother and sister soul. As a commentary to our ECOROPA-Documents, he wrote a thoughtful examination of the need for a new European Culture. The ecological movement should from the beginning be its pioneer. (That was in 1986.) He is convinced, that the so-called male values are at the origin, leading us to the abyss, and that the female values - respect of life, attraction by the smaIl, support for the weak, mutual confidence, etc. may permit us to stop the race to oblivion.
