Description

After the Holocene Planetary Politics For Commoners, by Gene Ray

Capitalist modernity has ended the Holocene. The epoch of planetary
heating and climate chaos has begun. Business-as-usual is
leading to hothouse earth and mass extinction, but how to pull the
emergency brake on the extraction and techno-acceleration regime?
Alternatives exist, but the capitalist classes are blocking them. This
book argues that one such alternative, commoning, offers first steps
on a pathway to metabolic sanity and collective self-rescue. As the
mutualist and more-than-human association of direct producers,
commons ecologies will be a necessary and buildable factor in the
strategic struggle to disarm, power down and abolish capitalism.
