| book description |

In this new edition of his acclaimed book, Michael LÃ¶wy argues that capitalism is killing the planetâ€”and offers a competing vision of radical, ecosocialist transformation. This expanded and revised edition foregrounds LÃ¶wyâ€™s canonical essays, from sharp critiques of environmentalist complicity to deep dives into Marxist texts. LÃ¶wy offers an incisive critique of the destructive logic of capitalism, tracing the intimate link between the struggle against the commodification of the world and the defense of the environment. Moving between theory and practice, he looks to activists around the world, especially in Latin America, to push readers to dream bigger about what might become possible. Real change requires a complete reorganization of our modes of production and consumptionâ€”a fundamental shift, rooted in democratic planning, toward a society where both human and planetary needs are valued. Prescient, shrewd, and deeply hopeful,Â EcosocialismÂ is an indispensable introduction for people unsatisfied with mainstream â€œsolutionsâ€ to climate changeâ€”and will also challenge committed environmentalists to deepen their analysis of the climate crisis.Â
