{"product_id":"capitalism-at-the-limit-ulrich-brand-9781509569755","title":"Capitalism at the Limit: A Political Ecology of a World in Crisis","description":"Capitalism is hitting the buffers. Unable to handle the various crises that its inherent logic of growth, profit, and competition has produced, it has led the world into a state of emergency - with the authoritarian right on the rise globally and progressive forces unable to realize the transformations needed to secure the future prosperity of people and planet. �The old is dying and the new cannot be born�, Gramsci said. We are caught between forces agitating for fundamental change, Green Capitalist modernizers, and fierce defenders of the status quo. How did this happen, and what is to be done? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this new book, Ulrich Brand and Markus Wissen, authors of the acclaimed \u003ci\u003eThe Imperial Mode of Living\u003c\/i\u003e, trace how capitalism has reached its very limits. Alongside the mutually reinforcing environmental, geopolitical, and social crises we face, they analyse the struggles that will determine the fate of humanity. Critiquing dominant pathways - from Green Capitalism to authoritarian and anti-ecological policies - that reinforce the Global North�s imperial mode of living, the authors offer a fairer alternative based on solidarity and collective self-limitation. \u003ci\u003eCapitalism at the Limit\u003c\/i\u003e is a clear-sighted look at the dynamics driving the critical conflicts of our time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ulrich Brand,Markus Wissen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509569758\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509569755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ulrich Brand","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48013961789695,"sku":"9781509569755","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e1464bd5-ff44-4fc0-9a22-b7465b0efd18.jpg?v=1767745856","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/capitalism-at-the-limit-ulrich-brand-9781509569755","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
