Immigration and liberal taboos: unpublished text by Edward Abbey – La Cocarde Étudiante offers you the unpublished translation of a hotly current text by the American writer and environmental activist Edward Abbey (1927-1989), published in 1988 in the collection One Life at Time, Please. By leaving it to you to discover the work of Edward Abbey and to learn about the atypical journey of this character, some of whose works are translated into French, let us nevertheless stop on the point that interests us here: why the hell an activist of his caliber, a man of the desert spaces of the American West, does he take such a firm stance on immigration? Rather than surprising, it should come across as obvious. Sometimes bluntly, the author wants to show that there will be no sustainable and harmonious human existence possible in a world that is too “full”, saturated by the industrial world but also by population growth.
