The Future is Degrowth
We need to break free from the capitalist economy. Degrowth gives us the tools to bend its bars. Economic growth isn’t working, and it cannot be made to work. Offering a counter-history of how economic growth emerged in the context of colonialism, fossil-fueled industrialization, and capitalist modernity, The Future Is Degrowth argues that the ideology of growth conceals the rising inequalities and ecological destructions associated with capitalism, and points to desirable alternatives to it. Not only in society at large, but also on the left, we are held captive by the hegemony of growth. Even proposals for emancipatory Green New Deals or postcapitalism base their utopian hopes on the dev...
This Isn’t Fine
Jam-packed with charts, graphs, and hilarious memes, This Isn’t Fine is a surprisingly funny and accessible ride through a world on the brink of collapse—and what we can do to survive it. Diving headfirst into finance and energy, culture and ecology, Ahlstrom transforms the complex systems and histories that underpin our society into relatable narratives, all while mythbusting popular delusions on everything from free-market capitalism to electric cars. This is not a depressing book about the end of the world. It’s a book about how we can save it. And it’s a must-read for any human on planet earth.

Tương lai sẽ là thoái tăng trưởng – Matthias Schmelzer, Andrea Vetter, Aaron Vansintjan
Khủng hoảng khí hậu, khoảng cách ngày càng tăng giữa những người giàu nhất và những người nghèo nhất, giữa Bắc và Nam Địa cầu, cùng đại dịch COVID-19 đã chứng minh mô hình kinh tế chủ đạo dựa trên tăng trưởng không còn phù hợp với sự phát triển của đời sống. Việc phê phán một hệ thống kinh tế dựa trên tăng trưởng không phải là mới. Từ 50 năm trước đã có những nghiên cứu khoa học cảnh báo rằng việc tiêu thụ tài nguyên của một nền kinh tế ngày một phát triển là không bền vững. Kể từ đó, nhiều giải pháp thay thế cho nền ki...
Cooperation
Liberal democracy is in crisis around the world, unable to address pressing problems such as climate change. There is, however, another path—cooperation democracy. From consumer co-ops to credit unions, worker cooperatives to insurance mutuals, nonprofits to mutual aid, countless examples prove that people working together can extend the ideals of participatory democracy and sustainability into every aspect of their lives. These forms of cooperation do not depend on electoral politics. Instead, they harness the longstanding practices and values of cooperatives: self-determination, democratic participation, equity, solidarity, and respect for the environment. Bernard E. Harcourt develops a ...
International Cooperation Against All Odds
International Cooperation Against All Odds: The Ultrasocial World recasts how we understand international relations through an examination of how the human evolutionary predisposition to be "ultrasocial" as a species impacts which political ideas succeed, transform, manipulate, and inspire on a global scale. At a time when pessimism about our current world order is at an all-time high, this book overturns widespread assumptions that international relations is mainly about conflict, power, and national self-interest. In the last 10-20 years, scientists have discovered that as a species, we are biologically hard-wired, soft-wired, and pre-wired to be other-regarding and cooperative. Humans are...
