Marx's Idea of Ecosocialism in the Anthropocene

When: 5 November 2019, 14:00 — 16:00
Venue: Birkbeck 10 Gower Street

No booking required

Kohei Saito’s Karl Marx’s Ecosocialism lays waste to accusations of Marx’s ecological shortcomings. Delving into Karl Marx’s central works, as well as his natural scientific notebooks—published only recently and still being translated—Saito also builds on the works of scholars such as John Bellamy Foster and Paul Burkett, to argue that Karl Marx actually saw the environmental crisis embedded in capitalism.
