Recenzje

"Eve Croeser presents a compelling case for an emancipatory project for climate justice and eco-socialism. Mobilising Marxist political-economy and an ecological neo-Gramscianism, her rigorous, accessible and elegantly written book should help inspire the activism needed to save the biosphere and for eco-socialism to triumph over capitalist barbarism." -- Adrian Budd, Associate Professor, London South Bank University, UK

"Empirically rich and analytically deft in its account of the rise of both the Anthropocene and global capitalism, Ecosocialism and Climate Justice probes the pitfalls of mainstream institutional responses to the climate crisis, and points the way toward the socially just alternative that is so urgently needed." - William K. Carroll, Professor of Sociology and Co-director, the Corporate Mapping Project, University of Victoria, Canada
