www-splcenter-org-2341		Garrett Hardin | Southern Poverty Law Center			.html	text/html	2358	141	53	Hardin used his status as a famous scientist and environmentalist to provide a veneer of intellectual and moral legitimacy for his underlying nativist agenda, serving on the board of directors of both the anti-immigrant Federation for American Immigration Reform and the white-nationalist Social Contract Press. He worked within both academic and activist circles to make immigration an environmental issue by convincing the public that impending environmental disaster could only be averted by sealing the borders, cutting off relief efforts and foreign aid to poor nations, and working to purge as much ethnic and cultural diversity from the United States as possible. At the same time, however, Hardin also published numerous articles in far-right publications, including The Social Contract, a nativist magazine founded by anti-immigration activist John Tanton and edited by Wayne Lutton, and Chronicles, a far-right magazine controversial even among conservatives for its racism and anti-Semitism. Hardin's interest in curtailing both the immigration and reproduction of ethnic minorities in the United States was part of a broader program of white separatism.	./cache/www-splcenter-org-2341.html	./txt/www-splcenter-org-2341.txt
