Ecological relations were shown to be central to Marx’s critique of capitalism, including his value analysis. Now in Marx and the Earth Foster and Burkett expand on this analysis in the process of responding to recent ecosocialist criticisms of Marx. The result is a full-fledged anti-critique —pointing to the crucial roles that dialectics, open-system thermodynamics, intrinsic value, and aesthetic understandings played in the original Marxian critique, holding out the possibility of a new red-green synthesis.Historical materialism book series ;Volume 115.Communism and ecologyCommunism and ecology.306.3/45Foster John Bellamy89531Burkett Paul1956 May 26-Wishart RyanMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809193403321Marx and the earth4114547UNINA
