    Abstract

    This paper is part of a broader project exploring personal sustainability in social movements, part of which was presented at last year's Alternative Futures and Popular Protest conference (Cox 2008). It represents some very preliminary working notes attempting to rethink, and restructure, a problematic whose contours are extremely slippery.
