'Degrowth or ecomodernism? This book offers a compelling alternative. More than a utopian ideal, radical abundance is the guiding principle of a socialist revolution already in action' -- Kohei Saito, author of <i>Slow Down: How Degrowth Communism Can Save the Earth</i> 'The crises we face—mass deprivation and ecological breakdown—cannot be resolved within capitalism. We need a pathway out. Radical Abundance delivers exactly that. If you're looking for practical steps to a post-capitalist future, don't miss this book' -- Jason Hickel, author of <i>Less is More: How Degrowth Will Save the World</i> 'Radical Abundance resets the terms of left debate. With its concrete, compelling, and creative embrace of class struggle as a politics of transition, it is indispensable to anyone committed to building popular power on a rapidly heating planet' -- Jodi Dean, author of <i>Capital's Grave: Neofeudalism and the New Class Struggle</i> 'A rigorously argued and radically hopeful book, which exposes the gross inefficiency of modern capitalism and shows precisely how we can begin to build societies that guarantee a good life for all' -- Grace Blakeley, author of <i>Vulture Capitalism: How to Survive in an Age of Corporate Greed</i>
