Topics include: the ecological contradictions of capitalist accumulation and the growing social conflicts they create; the relationship between imperialism, markets, oil politics, and renewable energy; the significance of the impasse over the Kyoto protocol; and whether market forces and technology can overcome the \"limits to growth\" while preserving the biosphere.\u003cbr\u003eThese essays also analyze how deeply consumerism affects working class politics and the shortcomings of Green parties and \"green commerce.\" In addition, they address the necessity to redefine standards of living chiefly in the countries of the North in order to allow for the global redistribution of wealth and income that are critical for development in the South.\u003cbr\u003eThe international roster of contributors includes Mike Davis and Neil Smith, Enrique Leff, Joan Martinez-Alier, Elmar Altvater, and Michael Lowy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leo Panitch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1583671528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781583671528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Monthly Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.14h x 6.32w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2007 pg. 91","brand":"Leo Panitch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124905996543,"sku":"9781583671528","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b0debdcd-0c68-4e36-b66f-e739ef312e9d.jpg?v=1687439508","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coming-to-terms-with-nature-leo-panitch-9781583671528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
