Capitalism in the Web of Life : Ecology and the Accumulation of Capital

Finance. Climate. Food. Class. How are the crises-and politics-of the twenty-first century connected? In Capitalism in the Web of Life, Jason W. Moore argues that the sources of today's global turbulence have a common cause: capitalism as a way of organizing planetary life. Drawing on environmentalist, feminist, and Marxist thought, Moore offers a groundbreaking synthesis: capitalism as a "world-ecology" of power, profit, and life.
