Slow Down

A NEW YORKER BEST BOOK OF 2024 ’ACCESSIBLE AND CONVINCING’ – SALLY ROONEY Capitalism by its very nature puts us at odds with the environment. Therefore, argues award-winning Japanese philosopher Kohei Saito, the future must belong to a new form of communism, the only fair and humane existence the limits of nature can support. Drawing on a revelatory new reading of Karl Marx’s enigmatic final writings, Saito shows us how nothing but a transformation of our economic life can save us from climate collapse. There is no alternative: the endless acceleration of capital has run out of road. If we can’t slow down, we will crash.
