REVIEWS


Timely and provocative. Beuret turns the scarcity of hope and the contraction of politics into an opportunity for deepening and expanding our tactics. Fighting back against the capitalist climate transition is possible. Beuret shows us how – Jodi Dean, author of Capital’s Grave

Our world is getting warmer and weirder. In response, politicians and the wealthy promise a “green transition” that fails to solve climate change while hurting ordinary people. This book provides a road map for resistance – Joel Wainwright, author of The End

We need books that inspire action. Nicholas Beuret’s book not only lays out the case against ‘green capitalism’, but also highlights the work of those fighting back against it – Lit Hub Most Anticipated Books of 2025
