Brian M. Napoletano studied biogeography at Michigan State University and Purdue University, but has since shifted his focus to the geographical dimensions of the metabolic rift, including alienation and territorial dispossession associated with capitalist urbanisation, conservation, resource extraction and other major land-change processes in the Global South. He has recently become interested in the possibilities of autogestion and successful co-revolutionary mobilisation by the world and environmental proletariat to forge a hegemonic alternative to capital's alienated mode of social-metabolic control.
