Description
A People's Green New Deal by Max Ajl is a concise and urgent analysis of the mainstream Green New Deals and their limitations. The author critically engages with their proponents, ideological underpinnings, and proposes a radical alternative: a "People's Green New Deal" committed to decommodification, working-class power, anti-imperialism, and agro-ecology. Ajl diagnoses the roots of the current socio-ecological crisis as emerging from a world-system dominated by the logics of capitalism and imperialism. He argues that resolving this crisis requires an infrastructural and agricultural transformation in the Global North, and the industrial convergence between North and South. This book contributes a distinctive perspective to the debate on the Green New Deal. By examining the various mainstream approaches and proposing a radical alternative, A People's Green New Deal offers a fresh analysis of the climate crisis and its solutions.
