The Rise of the Green Left: A Global Introduction to Ecosocialism

Ecosocialism is a worldwide phenomenon that is redefining the future of left and green politics. The reality of climate change has become the driving force behind this global movement for political change. Ecosocialists argue that capitalism threatens the future of humanity and the rest of nature.

Derek Wall offers a practical insider's guide to ecosocialism. The book explores ecosocialism's core ideas, its development and its impact worldwide. From indigenous protest in the Peruvian Amazon, to the green transition in Cuba, to the creation of red-green parties in Europe, ecosocialism is on the rise.

Drawing on the work of key thinkers such as Joel Kovel and John Bellamy Foster, this lucid and straightforward book is an ideal handbook for anyone interested in red and green politics.
