Root Force is a biocentric, decentralized, international direct-action campaign devoted to "() the system that is killing and enslaving () planet and its people."〔"Root Force Mission Statement," http://www.rootforce.org/what-is-root-force/mission-statement/〕 Its slogan is "Demolishing Colonialism At Its Foundations."〔(Root Force )〕 ==Campaign Philosophy and Strategy== Root Force describes itself as "a strategic campaign designed to exploit weak points in the global economy and hasten the system’s collapse. Root Force ... promotes anti-infrastructure analysis and action, based on the recognition that infrastructure expansion is a weak point of the system." 〔"What is Root Force?" http://www.rootforce.org/what-is-root-force/〕 The Root Force campaign incorporates analysis characteristic of the Latin American solidarity, radical environmental and anti-globalization movements.〔(Root Force Road Show Comes To South Florida! Nov 14 - 15 : Miami IMC )〕 According to campaign literature, ills such as environmental destruction, war, and genocide against indigenous peoples are caused by a global system and cannot be eliminated without eliminating that system. As examples of the names given to this system, Root Force cites "'neoliberalism,' 'capitalism,' 'the state' or 'civilization.'"〔()〕 The campaign strategy is founded on the premise that the US economy depends upon imports from Latin America to continue functioning, and that these imports depend upon "transportation, energy, and communications infrastructure.".〔"Root Force Mission Statement〕 For this reason, Root Force opposes infrastructure expansion projects such as the Plan Puebla Panama and the Initiative for the Integration of South American Infrastructure. Like other segments of the anti-globalization movement, it also directs criticism and encourages action against international financial institutions, including the Inter-American Development Bank and the Central American Bank for Economic Integration.〔(DC Indymedia: IADB and other STRATEGIC TARGETS in DC against "growth" and its destruction of Latin America )〕〔''Earth First!'' 26:6 pp 26-27〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Root Force」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
