Description: Facing the Anthropocene : Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System, Paperback by Angus, Ian, ISBN 1583676090, ISBN-13 9781583676097, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Angus pulls together research over recent decades into two areas that have been considered separately so far. One is the conclusion in the Earth sciences that evolution has entered a new and dangerous phase, the Anthropocene, in which humans are the main force of change. The other is eco-socialists rediscovering and extending Marx's view that capitalism creates an irreparable rift in the interdependent process of social metabolism. Bridging the gap between the two, he hopes to show socialists that responding to the Anthropocene must be a central part of the program, theory, and activity in the 21st century, and to show Earth System scientists and environmentalists that ecological Marxism provides essential economic and social understanding that is missing in most discussions of the new epoch.
