Description
Socialism Or Extinction: The Meaning of Revolution in a Time of Ecological Disaster by Martin Empson explores the urgent need for radical change in response to the environmental crisis caused by capitalism. Environmental activists worldwide are demanding 'system change' as they recognize that profit-driven systems prioritize economic gain over human life and ecological well-being. The book argues that revolution is not an abstract concept from history, but a necessary actuality for the 21st century, offering hope for humanity's long-term future. Empson outlines the type of politics required to build a sustainable world, emphasizing the need to end capitalism and create a new socialist system. In this timely analysis, Empson makes the case for revolutionary change as the only viable solution to address the environmental crisis and ensure a livable future.
