"[B]old and original ... an invitation into a more compassionate and generous way of being in the world."
Jeremy Williams, The Earthbound Report
"A very readable and thought-provoking contribution to what is surely the most important debate of the modern era."
Christians on the Left
"Seven Ethics Against Capitalism sharply reveals the multiple crises being generated by the capitalist mode of production - from climate breakdown, to inequality, to the erosion of democracy - and how impossible it would be to fix any of these problems without a radical transformation in the way we organize society. Mould convincingly argues that values such as solidarity, stewardship and radical love must be at the heart of this new vision for the world, as well as the movements aiming to bring it into being."
Grace Blakeley, author of Stolen: How to Save the World from Financialisation
"In times when everything from nature to desire is being privatized, to shift our attention towards planetary commons is an essential ethical duty. Oli Mould's timely Seven Ethics Against Capitalism is an urgent and passionate call not only to deeply rethink our dire present but to create the conditions for our common future beyond capitalism."
Srecko Horvat, author of After the Apocalypse "A conceptual toolkit and survival guide for outliving capitalism. Through an original, compelling and readable account of the commons, Mould distils a set of ethical dispositions for building a more convivial and democratic future."
David Madden, London School of Economics and Political Science
