Volume three in the Democratic Marxism series, The Climate Crisis investigates eco-socialist alternatives that are emerging. It presents the thinking of leading climate justice activists, campaigners and social movements advancing systemic alternatives and developing bottom-up, just transitions to sustain life. Through a combination of theoretical and empirical work, the authors collectively examine the challenges and opportunities inherent in the current moment. This volume places ecological issues at the center of democratic Marxism. Most importantly, it explores ways to renew historical socialism with democratic, eco-socialism alternatives to meet current challenges in South Africa and the world.
