The search for a solution to this crisis must begin by understanding its causes. Taking an eco-socialist perspective, The Ecological Crisis and the Logic of Capital explores the logic of capitalism as a fundamental cause of today?s environmental crisis, in particular the thirst for profit and the capitalist mode of production. By demonstrating the inherent antagonism between capital and ecology, this book argues that proposals to resolve the crisis within the capitalist system are utopian, that proposed remedies relying on scientific progress, alternative energies, low-carbon technologies or the introduction of ecological ethics and new attitudes toward Nature into market mechanisms are doomed to failure without a radical overhaul of the principles that govern capitalism. 410 0$aStudies in Moral Philosophy$v12. 606 $aHuman ecology$xPhilosophy 606 $aSustainable development$xPolitical aspects 606 $aEnvironmental protection$xPolitical aspects 606 $aEnvironmental policy$zChina 606 $aCommunism and ecology 615 0$aHuman ecology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSustainable development$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental protection$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aCommunism and ecology. 676 $a363.7 700 $aChen$b Xueming$f1947-$01675988 701 $aLihuan$b Wu$01675989 701 $aBaixiang$b Liu$01675990 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823050003321 996 $aThe ecological crisis and the logic of capital$94041857 997 $aUNINA
