[en] My proposal is in the form of a manifesto: a manifesto was originally a text posted in a public place to communicate an intention, a program to the community. Following preliminary work on the construction of a claim for ecological justice in different peasant seed collectives (France and Belgium), this text freely explores the potential of the opening of a (new?) field based on the work of ecological justice (Bosselmanss 2008) and environmental justice (Schlosberg 2007). First, I briefly illustrate the concept of ecological justice from the case of European peasant seeds (Kokopelli - Koal Koaz - Carrot crunchers). Then I develop in my manifesto two ideas: openness versus closure-exclusion linked to crisis situations "on the verge of irreversibility" and experimentation necessary for the recognition of injustices.
