| book description |
In this new edition of his acclaimed book, Michael Löwy argues that capitalism is killing the planet—and offers a competing vision of radical, ecosocialist transformation. This expanded and revised edition foregrounds Löwy’s canonical essays, from sharp critiques of environmentalist complicity to deep dives into Marxist texts. Löwy 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 consumption—a fundamental shift, rooted in democratic planning, toward a society where both human and planetary needs are valued. Prescient, shrewd, and deeply hopeful, Ecosocialism is an indispensable introduction for people unsatisfied with mainstream “solutions†to climate change—and will also challenge committed environmentalists to deepen their analysis of the climate crisis.Â
