Posts Tagged ‘capitalism’Are the greens going off?This is a draft of a piece I am writing about climate change and capital - still in progress, but would appreciate any thoughts/suggestions/critiques/observations. Download HERE. 0 Comments Food vs moneyThis is a superb short article by Esther Vivas on the current food crisis, and the stubborn refusal of the rich North to change direction to avert further catastrophe. The concentration of most of the world’s supply in the hands of a very small number of corporations is hugely problematic; yet it is the direction we are moving rapidly towards, to the distress of the global South. It should not go unnoticed that these policies are being pursued by governments elected by us (in Europe and the US), and by institutions they have established which have no democratic accountability (the IMF and the World Bank). We urgently need to find ways to fight this if we are not to see increasing scarcity in poorer countries. 0 Comments |
