Ecological problems: definition and evaluation -- 2. Marxism and the green Malthusians -- 3. Marxism and the ecological method -- 4. Historical materialism: locating society in nature -- 5. Development of the productive forces -- 6. Capitalism, socialism and the satisfaction of needs.This book challenges the widely-held view that Marxism is unable to deal adequately with environmental problems. Jonathan Hughes considers the nature of environmental problems, and the evaluative perspectives that may be brought to bear on them. He examines Marx's critique of Malthus, his method, and his materialism, interpreting the latter as a recognition of human dependence on nature. Central to the book's argument is an interpretation of the 'development of the productive forces' which takes account of the differing ecological impacts of different productive technologies while remaining consistent with the normative and explanatory roles that this concept plays within Marx's theory. Turning finally to Marx's vision of a society founded on the communist principle 'to each according to his needs', the author concludes that the underlying notion of human need is one whose satisfaction presupposes only a modest and ecologically feasible expansion of productive output.Studies in Marxism and social theory.Ecology & Historical MaterialismEcologyHistorical materialismEcology.Historical materialism.577/.01Hughes Jonathan1966-1055928UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910450067103321Ecology and historical materialism2489761UNINA02582nam 22005774a 450 991044993430332120200520144314.01-118-16095-91-280-26524-897866102652440-471-68989-0(CKB)1000000000244109(EBL)214332(OCoLC)475920747(SSID)ssj0000125546(PQKBManifestationID)11144424(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000125546(PQKBWorkID)10026522(PQKB)11591150(MiAaPQ)EBC214332(Au-PeEL)EBL214332(CaPaEBR)ebr10114098(CaONFJC)MIL26524(EXLCZ)99100000000024410920040408d2004 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrCommodity trading advisors[electronic resource] risk, performance analysis, and selection /[edited by] Greg N.
