What goals are still feasible for the politics of emancipation on a ruined planet? This is where we are. Today's techno-oligarchs are not concerned with saving the planet; rather, they have accepted the end of progress and are focused on safeguarding their wealth in the face of an impending political and ecological collapse. Artificial intelligence and algorithms make decisions for us. Climate breakdown has long steamed past the wreckage of the Paris Agreement. Perhaps the accelerationists have the right idea. Accelerationism - which aims to resolve the current crisis through the intensification of technological development - is the only philosophy not clinging to the now-extinct idea of progress. The idea has gained ground on both the left and right: but the right-wing is shot through with misanthropy, while the left remains entangled in a faith in technological progress and the domination of nature. Transcending capitalism at the end of progress requires a synthesis of the two. The result of this synthesis: Dark Socialism. From 'rock star philosopher' Kohei Saito comes an anticapitalist clarion call for our breakneck times, channeling despair into a socialist project equal to the end of progress.

Routledge Environmental Humanities

With particular focus on more-than-human experience, this creative-critical book explores the role of literary storytelling in representing and communicating the oceanic environmental crisis.While investigating the creative potential of scholarship in material ecocriticism and the blue humanities, this book not only examines the theoretical tools needed, but also develops the poetic and creative role of scholarship in imagining a livable oceanic future. To overcome anthropocentric views of nature, it argues that a fluid and more-than-human literary form is needed. This is developed in the book as a 'jellyfish poetics': a literary structuring device based on the jellyfish life cycle. The book not only theorises this new form, but also enacts it, presenting original and innovative research that embodies a synthesis between creative and scholarly approaches. With its main focus being more-than-human experience of oceanic environmental issues, central case studies are jellyfish, ecological depletion in the North Sea and recent nature-based Dutch water management.This is an important book for scholars interested in the intersection of blue humanities and creative writing as well as the wider environmental humanities. Additionally, it is relevant to practitioners, writers and educators who grapple with the challenge of representing environmental crisis.

Literary Storytelling and the Environmental Crisis of the Oceans

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Own Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Own Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

A thrilling history of how we fell in and out of love with a technology that changed not just the world, but changed us. 'Science and technology never seem more exciting than when James Gleick is writing about them' - Elizabeth Kolbert, author of The Sixth Extinction 'Forces you to see the world with new eyes. Blending expertise with a thrilling narrative . . . I loved it!' - Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen and Eleanor 'Charts our distance-compressing, time-shifting telephonic adventure with exceptional brio and subtlety' - Stacy Schiff, author of The Revolutionary: Samuel Adams A supernatural instrument bringing voices from afar, the telephone burst onto the world stage 150 years ago, a triumphant story of individual ingenuity and vision. Instantly, the ability to speak across vast distances began to transform every part of life: from business organization to military tactics, from news gathering to sex work. But the story of The Telephone is also one of corrupt scheming and ruthless tactics; the race to the patent office, to make money, a contest replete with bribery, fraud and speculation. And no one, not even its inventors, realised what the telephone was good for or how ubiquitous it would become. As the telephone settled into the background - in offices and on streets, on bedside tables and kitchen walls - people forgot how they ever lived without it. Now, as landlines, telephone books and telephone boxes vanish into the past, bestselling author James Gleick shows how this commonplace object irreversibly changed not only the world but who we are as human beings. 'Gleick does what only the best science writers can do: take a subject of which most of us are only peripherally aware and put it at the center of the universe' - Time

A New History

The Telephone

Wars are expensive, both in human terms and monetary ones. But while warfare might be costly it has also, at times, been an important driver of economic change and progress. Over the long span of history nothing has shaped human institutions - and thus the process of economic development - as much as war and violence. Blood and Treasure looks at the history and economics of warfare from the Viking Age to the war in Ukraine, examining how incentives and institutions have changed over time. Along the way it asks whether Genghis Khan should be regarded as the father of globalisation, explains how New World gold and silver kept Spain poor, asks if handing out medals hurt the Luftwaffe in the Second World War and assesses if economic theories helped to create a tragedy in Vietnam. 'A delightfully quirky approach to military history' Spectator 'Time and again Weldon spots the invisible hand behind hostilities' The Economist

An interdisciplinary framework for understanding climate anxiety Climate change generates measurable psychological consequences, yet research on eco-distress remains fragmented across disciplines. Climate Anxiety: An Interdisciplinary Approach, authored by a team of international researchers from universities and health institutions, offers an interdisciplinary framework for understanding climate anxiety and the psychological challenges of climate change. The book synthesizes perspectives from psychiatry, psychology, public health, and environmental science to provide a structured, cross-disciplinary account of how climate anxiety manifests, propagates, and affects populations, including cognitive, emotional, and behavioral dimensions, and addressing both individual-level responses and broader societal patterns of adaptation. The volume explores this topic by examining the key issues and current scientific literature in each of the world's major region and the effect on indigenous populations. Readers will also find: <ul> <li>A historical overview on the relationship between climate crisis, anxiety and violent reactions.</li> <li>A summary on the effects of climate change on mental health from a clinical perspective and a review of the main individual and group interventions for climate anxiety.</li> <li>An in-depth analysis on the relationship between climate anxiety and spirituality.</li> <li>A focus on intersectionality of climate change and its implications on the Global Majority.</li> <li>An investigation on the role of anxiety in climate prepping.</li> <li>An interpretation of climate anxiety as a sign of cultural trauma and how it is contributing to the mutation of global thought and culture.</li> </ul> Climate Anxiety serves researchers, clinicians, public health professionals, and advanced students working at the intersection of mental health and environmental change. By unifying perspectives from psychiatry, psychology, and environmental science, this volume provides a structured foundation for understanding and addressing the psychological toll of ecological disruption.

An Interdisciplinary Approach

Climate Anxiety

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

This book examines climate change and the need for advertising creatives to think and create strategically in order to educate about the human role in climate adaptation.&nbsp;As more brands and organizations feel the economic and cultural effects of climate realities, there is an urgent need for the advertising industry to offer smarter, creative approaches to messaging about this phenomenon. Creatives must use their ability to translate complex issues into messages that resonate with multiple audiences while&nbsp;bridge the gap between consumers and climate understanding. The author argues that brands and corporations have a social responsibilty to provide this value, thereby fighting misinformation and emboldening citizens to work toward adaptive behaviors with understanding of basic climate science. Through the themes of complexity, creativity, and courage, this book synthesizes theory on audience engagement and discusses how to frame the climate issue effectively.

Farmed Animals and the Law: Legal Pathways Beyond Intensive Farming is a concise and practical guide to the laws regulating farmed animals in the UK, placing them within the wider context of food system governance and climate commitments. Farmed animal law is often equated with welfare legislation, but in reality it spans a wide range of domains: subsidies and competition, investment and finance, markets and trade, food safety and standards, sanitary and phytosanitary rules, labelling and consumer protection, as well as planning and environmental law. Together, these frameworks shape the UK food system and influence how the country meets its international obligations, including under the Paris Agreement. With around 85% of farmed animals in the UK reared in intensive systems, the handbook focuses in particular on the regulation and future of intensive farming. Despite their importance, these legal regimes remain fragmented and underexplored. Lawyers working in specialist fields often lack a broader point of reference, while NGOs and campaigners may not have the expertise to navigate technical frameworks. This book addresses that gap by providing a clear, accessible overview that combines legal accuracy with usability. Each chapter is designed for quick reference: setting out the relevant statutes, regulations, and case law, explaining their operation, and identifying the practical implications for enforcement and accountability. The book moves from the immediate level of farm welfare and planning permission through to international trade and climate regimes, tracing the links between animal agriculture, markets, and sustainability. The result is a unique resource - authoritative yet approachable, academically grounded yet practice-focused - for lawyers, students, NGOs, and others concerned with the future of farming, food, and climate. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Property and Land Law online service.

Legal Pathways Beyond Intensive Farming

Farmed Animals and the Law

This book is the first investigation of the relationship between EU digital sovereignty and sustainability strategies. It maps the ambitions and limitations of EU digital strategic autonomy and explores the structural challenges underlying its relationship with its green transition objectives in the context of the ongoing wars in neighbouring European countries and the consequent tensions in the EU energy sector. The EU is racing to achieve technological independence from third countries and foreign multinational companies to protect its digital sovereignty and preserve its fundamental rights. In the EU, digitalisation and the green transformation are seen as twin transitions. Yet, EU digital sovereignty strategies have a significant environmental cost. Reaching a status of strategic autonomy of the EU at the level of digital infrastructures, products, services and data implies higher energy consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Moreover, the geopolitical tensions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have provoked an unprecedented energy crisis, which is affecting EU economies and impacting objectives of the twin transitions. The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the major EU regulatory and policy instruments in this field, providing an invaluable guide for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of preserving digital sovereignty and addressing climate change in times of war and energy crisis.
