Red-Green Revolution: The Politics and Technology of Ecosocialism

Red-Green Revolution is a comprehensive introduction to ecosocialism. Moving from an overview of capital’s relationship to the environment and a critique of green capitalism, to a discussion of the divisions within the socialist and environmental movements, Victor Wallis shows how a class-based analysis of technology and society can reshape our relationship with the natural environment.

Confronting the planetary emergency brought about by accelerated ecological devastation in the last half-century, Wallis argues that sound ecological policy requires a socialist framework based on democratic participation and examines how such a framework can materialize as popular struggles converge under conditions of crisis.

This second edition includes updated references, a new Preface, and an Epilogue in which the author discusses the transformative developments that have occurred since 2018.
