This revolutionary book fuses the enduring legacy of socialism - government for the common good - with the best of the environmental movement and the newest insights from sustainability studies. The result is a manifesto in the tradition of Bill McKibben’s Eaarth - a road map forward in the face of the growing environmental catastrophe, which is the most complex crisis humanity has ever faced.
American conservatives like to say that Marxism was destroyed by its opponents and by the mistakes of Marxist governments. Organic Marxism provides the definitive answer to this charge. New economic evidence reveals that Marx’s predictions are coming true in ways once thought impossible. Today the wealthiest class, the richest 1 percent, possesses more wealth and power than ever before, whereas the 99 percent are slipping economically, and the majority of humans live in increasing poverty. Above all else, the global environmental crisis changes everything.
Clayton and Heinzekehr show how, over the last decades, rich individuals and multinational corporations have acted selfishly to increase their own wealth - with devastating ecological consequences. The data make it clear that the planet has reached the limits of its capacity. The authors trace the unimaginable environmental and social consequences that (scientists tell us) global warming will bring: mass extinctions, food and water shortages, violent weather, rising oceans. Why, then, do our governments continue to favor the wealthy? Why do they take no action…or actually worsen the situation?
Organic Marxism shows why the situation is not hopeless, however. The vast majority of humans favor sustainable systems and lifestyles.

I like eating.
Therefore, Marxism in any form gets 0 / 10

“Organic Marxism shows why the situation is not hopeless, however. The vast majority of humans favor sustainable systems and lifestyles”
Does this mean doing everything possible to stop population growth in sub Saharan African? Because the numbers are staggering. I don’t know how we can distribute equally when they will be consuming so much of the rest of the world’s resources.

…er, devastating ecological consequences? Like China poisoning its soil, water and crops; decades of widespread pollution that has contaminated food crops and jeopardized public health; Soviet, Chinese, Ethiopian & North Korean famines; pandemics; Chernobyl; the cure being worse - by orders of magnitude - than the disease? Oh, right.

as opposed to all the inorganic marxism?
srsly, people, are there any actual marxists even left? anyone that has actually lived under any marxist government surly isn’t is given even half a chance to exit the workers paradise.

I’m heartily sick of the regnant One Percent, let’s eat them & make room for the new Marxist One Percent. Their uniforms are being pressed, as we speak. Soon the population will be equally pressed.

“i’m heartily sick of the regnant One Percent,”
That’s anti-Semitic!
June 23rd, 2020
No Semitic peoples = no Western Civilisation. That’s my deeply considered view. Never understood the whole anti-Semitism thing.

@js - Many would disagree with that one!

The anti-socialist crowd has been so brainwashed since WW2 they are told the Commies are coming to take away your freedom. Everything from Joe Macarthy to blacklists and Hovers FBI. People were taught to fear anything, not Capitalist and the rich 1% couldn’t be happier. Well whether you like it or not a more equitable economic system is coming and the Right’s fear-mongering cant stop it.

Same comments every time on books like this: Cultural revolution, Pol Pot, Venezuela.
You should be looking at sustainable socialism in Northern Europe and Einstein’s “Why Socialism”

The following comes from The Galapagos Islands: A Spiritual Journey by Brian D. McLaren.
Any organism that does not fit harmoniously in its environment will end up as a fossil, as dust blowing across a desert—including the people who submit their brains and chain their lives to inflexible ideologies like contemporary communism and capitalism.
Both systems, after all, arose in the industrial era, an era that produced short-term wealth measured only in money, first by plundering the long-term and multifaceted wealth of the earth, and second by exploiting the labor of vulnerable people. Even though the two systems differed in their plans for distributing that wealth, they shared more assumptions than they realized, assumptions that may not be adaptable to the postindustrial, ecological civilization that we humans must create if we are to survive. To fashion that civilization, we must pay increasing attention to long-term environmental health measured in well-being, not just short-term wealth measured in money, and we must learn to cooperate with our fellow humans, our fellow species, and the physical systems of the earth itself for the common good. We can call this new cooperative economy anything we want to: ecological capitalism, reformed capitalism, organic capitalism, organic Marxism.[10] Whatever we call it, if we don’t develop an economy and a civilization that fit our environment, we simply won’t survive.
[10] See Philip Clayton and Justin Heinzekehr, Organic Marxism: An Alternative to Capitalism and Ecological Catastrophe (Claremont, CA: Process Century, 2014). We need scores of daring economists to defect from current economic orthodoxies and engage in a similar re-visioning of capitalism, before it’s too late.

The Road to Serfdom …
June 24th, 2020
I’d prefer orgasmic Marxism. The pleasure comes from watching the Neo Commies line the true believer disciples of capitalism up against a wall or in front of a ditch.
Only a zealot would be defending the current system or suggesting it’s not beyond reform.
The consequences of unprecedented overshoot by the cancer apes has just begun. It’ll never get better & only get worse for more & more people every year.
Your chimp tribalism, in the face of catastrophe, is proof positive that you are just bio robots following your evolutionary programming. Hyper social, insatiable reward seeking chimps who live in a near constant state of denial, believe in fictions & will kill or die defending them.
It couldn’t be any other way.

Nomad860 you don’t know what you’re talking about, we don’t have any socialist countries in Europe

@marcodiluce - Road to serfdom? You can get out of the car. We arrived awhile ago

The Left thinks it can re-brand Marxism in more deceitful ways in order to sell it to the masses :
#BlackLivesMatter
4th Wave Feminism
Social Democracy
But it always backfires eventually, when the radicalism shines through.

@apnea, Don’t hold back on us. Tell us how you really feel. Murder? Mayhem? Destruction? All in the name of “Utopia”? Did you get that from your commie lecturer in university? Have you ever held a job? Bet you have an iPhone which was manufactured in China with slave labor too. And that BLM tee-shirt was printed in your communist utopia of China too. Capitalism isn’t the best system unless you look at the alternative. Then is shines. Your toys wouldn’t exist under your utopia. Grow up and start thinking for yourself child.

OO OO OO it’ll work THIS time. Spare me.

Another attempt to put a different mask on the same Frankenstein.
Every time socialism/Marxism is tried, and fails miserably (but perhaps succeeding genocidally), they simply give the beast another name. Try doing that with a vicious Rottweiler. Just name him “Cuddles” instead of “Amputator” and see if that changes his intrinsic nature.
Go ahead, Smowflakes, give the monster another chance at your jugular vein. The real-estate for mass graves isn’t half full yet.

Same hate filled rant against the Job Creators.
Govt does not create jobs. It’s the chance takers, and those who risk.
Under marxism everything will be a “workers paradise”.
Poverty, loss of all freedoms, torture, disease, death, except for the Central Committee members (1%).
Bilge, garbage, and vomit philosophy here.
Brillo-Great points!

Settled science died when the world’s top scientific minds at the World Health Organization said in Jan/2020 that the virus was nothing to worry about.
