A revelatory manifesto that transforms climate economics for a new generation

A revelatory manifesto that transforms climate economics for a new generation

Saito K: Slow Down / B

Slow Down

How Degrowth Communism Can Save the Earth

A Financial Times Book of the Year No other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organise our politics. Sven Beckert situates the story of capitalism within the largest conceivable geographical and historical framework in this fascinating new book. Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism's radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics. Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn't merely add up capitalism's debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future.

A Global History

Capitalism

Capitalism has shaped the world in ways both visible and hidden. It structures how we live, how we work, and how we assign value to people and resources. In The Ends of the Earth, Franco Paz explores the rise of global capitalism through a history of labour, slavery, and environmental extraction, showing how the modern world was built on the coerced work of millions across continents. From the iron mines of Russia to the sugar plantations of the Caribbean, from Iberian salt works to New England fisheries, the labour of workers in one region made possible the exploitation of others. Raw materials, commodities, and human effort moved through vast planetary networks, connecting lives, economies, and environments in ways that reshaped the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and continue to shape our world today. Decentring traditional Eurocentric narratives, Paz reveals the human and ecological costs behind the wealth and power we take for granted. With vivid storytelling and meticulous research, The Ends of the Earth challenges readers to confront the enduring legacies of inequality, extraction, and exploitation that underpin contemporary capitalism.

The Ends of the Earth

Sustainable Finance

This book aims to explore possible solutions to the climate crisis through the tools provided by law, with particular emphasis on tax law. In a rapidly changing and constantly evolving society, taxation assumes increasing importance, as exchanges become as swift and complex as the connections that bring people closer together. Tax law permeates every activity involving an exchange, including those conducted remotely.The chapters follow a linear progression, moving from description to the proposal of concrete solutions. The analysis begins with an examination of the status quo, paying particular attention to the warnings raised by academics who have long highlighted the challenges posed by climate change and emphasized the need for a just transition. The discussion then turns to the issue of taxonomy, which plays a crucial role both in taxation and in green finance.Subsequently, the book explores the opportunities offered by well-designed labor taxation, especially in relation to the development of green jobs. It also provides an overview of the taxation of the digital market, considered in both the Italian and international contexts, in order to address current fiscal challenges.The final chapters set out several relevant solutions, including both short- and long-term measures, implemented through a range of legal instruments. In addition, the book offers macroeconomic perspectives, including reflections on possible adjustments to existing economic theories, with the aim of encouraging further research at the intersection of law and economics.

SDG - Forschung, Konzepte, Lösungsansätze zur Nachhaltigkeit

Dieses Fachbuch liefert Leitplanken für die Gestaltung einer nachhaltigen und zukunftsorientierten Arbeitswelt. Im Zentrum stehen dabei zwei zentrale Themen: die Erreichung von Klimaneutralität und die Förderung der Gesundheit der Mitarbeitenden.
 
 Mit Blick auf klimaneutrales Arbeiten wird untersucht, wo wir heute stehen, welche Chancen und Herausforderungen bevorstehen und inwieweit echte Klimaneutralität überhaupt möglich ist. Dabei wird deutlich, dass nachhaltiges Arbeiten weit über Einzelmaßnahmen hinausgeht – es betrifft Werte, Strategien und tägliches Handeln.
 Im Fokus des Gesundheitsaspekts steht die Idee der regenerativen Arbeitsgestaltung: Wie können Mitarbeitende die neue Arbeitswelt selbstbestimmt und gesund mitgestalten? Welche Rolle spielt Führung bei der Förderung regenerativer Arbeitsbedingungen? Und welche Rahmenbedingungen sollten Unternehmen schaffen, um Nachhaltigkeit und Gesundheit systematisch zu verankern?Verknüpft mit den globalen Nachhaltigkeitszielen der Vereinten Nationen, insbesondere SDG 8 - Menschenwürdige Arbeit und Wirtschaftswachstum, zeigt der Sammelband, wie ökologische, soziale und ökonomische Ziele vereint werden können. Mit fundierten Beiträgen, Praxisbeispielen und konkreten Impulsen für Führung, New Work und eine gesunde Arbeitswelt von morgen.Das Buch richtet sich an Gestalter:innen der Zukunft: HR-Verantwortliche, Führungskräfte, Organisationsentwickler:innen und alle, die New Work und Nachhaltigkeit aktiv verbinden wollen.Die HerausgeberinProf. Dr. Alexandra Cloots

Gestaltungsansätze zum klimaneutralen und regenerativen Arbeiten

Nachhaltige New Work

Everyone is talking about sustainability, yet its concrete meaning and consequences are often unclear. This handbook explains how global goals, climate change, and policy in the UN, EU 27, Germany, US, UK, and China fit together and shape our future.
It leads the reader from core concepts and key international agreements through a concise stock taking and long term outlook to concrete instruments for a more sustainable world. The handbook focuses on the real impact of global and European measures on economies, societies, and the planet. The role of Germany, the US, UK, and China is presented in each case.
Prof. Fieber assesses the achievements of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement. The countries responsible for global warming are identified and their contributions to improving the situation are compared. In addition, the advantages of liberal democracy over autocracy for achieving greater sustainability in one's own country and worldwide are a subject of this book.
The author¿s aim is to sharpen reader¿s awareness of the necessity for climate action while showing that ambitious sustainability policy can secure stable ecological, social, and economic foundations for future generations. 
It should also be made clear that every individual can contribute to greater sustainability. Taken together, government policy and these personal contributions can bring about a significant improvement in sustainability worldwide.

Goals, Climate Change, Politics

Sustainability

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.

Sustainable Development Goals Series

Building effective partnerships is essential for advancing the circular economy, yet it is also one of the greatest challenges of sustainability transitions. This book explores how diverse stakeholders, including governments, businesses, NGOs, academia, and civil society, can overcome fragmented efforts and establish long-term, systemic collaborations. Drawing on extensive research and real-world examples, the book provides a clear framework for understanding the building blocks, principles, and resilience mechanisms that facilitate effective partnerships. Practitioners will find practical tools and actionable strategies to design and sustain collaborations, and scholars will gain a unified theoretical perspective on governance and transition dynamics. By bridging academic and practical approaches, the book supports progress toward SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, demonstrating how cross-sectoral cooperation can drive circular and sustainable transformation.

Towards Systemic Change in the Circular Economy

Mastering Sustainable Partnerships

A definitive collection of essays by one of the leading living theorists of social power, brought together here for the first time. In this consolidated summation of his works, Steven Lukes reflects on the central questions and changing nature of 'the power debate' as it has evolved since the publication of his seminal work Power: A Radical View. Including six essays on power as it relates to central themes of truth, domination and moral responsibility, and engaging with nine influential recent and contemporary theorists of power, Power and Domination and Other Essays provides a major critique of a debate that remains as alive and contentious as ever. Bringing up to date Lukes's work on power in one accessible volume, this book is an essential companion to Power: A Radical View, now in its third edition, and useful for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of the history of social and political thought, political science and political sociology.

Power and Domination and Other Essays

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.
