Description
A trenchant look at contemporary capitalism’s insatiable appetite–and a rallying cry for everyone who wants to stop it from devouring our world Shortlisted for the Deutscher Memorial PrizeCapital is currently cannibalizing every sphere of life-guzzling wealth from nature and racialized populations, sucking up our ability to care for each other, and gutting the practice of politics. In this tightly argued and urgent volume, leading Marxist feminist theorist Nancy Fraser charts the voracious appetite of capital, tracking it from crisis point to crisis point, from ecological devastation to the collapse of democracy, from racial violence to the devaluing of care work. These crisis points all come to a head in Covid-19, which Fraser argues can help us envision the resistance we need to end the feeding we need, she argues, is a wide-ranging socialist movement that can recognize the rapaciousness of capital–and starve it to death.
