158 349f684f-f701-4c98-aedd-1d31d4a1826c Capitalism in the Web of Life: Ecology and the Accumulation of Capital Jason W. Moore calibre (4.8.0) [https://calibre-ebook.com] 2015-09-14T23:00:00+00:00 <div> <p>Finance. Climate. Food. Work. How are the crises of the twenty-first century connected? In <em>Capitalism in the Web of Life</em> , Jason W. Moore argues that the sources of today’s global turbulence have a common cause: capitalism as a way of organizing nature, including human nature. Drawing on environmentalist, feminist, and Marxist thought, Moore offers a groundbreaking new synthesis: capitalism as a “world-ecology” of wealth, power, and nature. Capitalism’s greatest strength—and the source of its problems—is its capacity to create Cheap Natures: labor, food, energy, and raw materials. That capacity is now in question. Rethinking capitalism through the pulsing and renewing dialectic of humanity-in-nature, Moore takes readers on a journey from the rise of capitalism to the modern mosaic of crisis. <em>Capitalism in the Web of Life</em> shows how the critique of capitalism-in-nature—rather than capitalism <em>and</em> nature—is key to understanding our predicament, and to pursuing the politics of liberation in the century ahead.</p></div> Verso 9781781689042 eng environmentalresistance
