The bioregion as a communitarian micro-region (and its limitations)

Ethics, Place & Environment, 2005
The micro-regional focus of bioregionalism is a small unit of physical space, typically a watershed region. In bioregional discourse, natural systems become metaphors for cultural coherence. However, when we look for laws embedded in the natural world, those that are found do not then reveal themselves as principles which apply to systems of culture ...

It attempts to do so by
