Review of Red-Green Revolution: The Politics and Technology of Ecosocialism by Victor Wallis

Pages 142-147 | Received 10 Sep 2018, Accepted 02 Nov 2018, Published online: 20 Mar 2019
 

ABSTRACT

Victor Wallis’s Red-Green Revolution is about ecosocialism as politics. He discusses the possible indispensable short-term ecosocialist reforms, particularly regarding technologies, within the necessary long-term challenge to revolutionize the capitalist mode of production. He outlines a political line of a potential ecosocialist organization within a movement as class-based, differentiating it from hyper-constructivist, anti-catastrophist and intersectional positions. Despite its indisputable merits, the argument needs some further socioeconomic theorization.
