I have used the Waring video in my classes, in particular Women and the Canadian Economy, very effectively. It is very good on the issue of the degrading of women's contribution to the economy and *as a result*, the degredation of the environment. But it is shallow on the question of capitalism as the cause of the problem and her environmentalism is very "Tory" -- the old golden pastoral age of sheep and dung. In fact she was here promoting her most recent book a couple of weeks ago ( I missed her as I was in Cuba) but my students who attended on my recomendation were not impressed -- she had reduced all her analysis to shit (dung). Within limits, therefore, her video is useful. But it is no substitute for analysis. Paul Phillips
