A veritable strategy for climate justice movements around the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book poses a key question: How was it possible for ecological limits to be transformed from constraints on development (as they looked like in 1970s) into putative business opportunities (as sustainable finance postulates)? From pure costs for companies to foundation of the green economy, i.e. a new strategy of capitalist accumulation in the era of global warming?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA central figure in exploring this question from the perspective of a labour-based political ecology is militant communist André Gorz – editor of \u003ci\u003eLes Temps Modernes\u003c\/i\u003e, journalist at \u003ci\u003eLe Nouvel observateur\u003c\/i\u003e and ruthless critic of cognitive capitalism.\u003cb\u003eEmanuele Leonardi\u003c\/b\u003e works at the Department of Sociology and Business Law, University of Bologna (Italy).
