A HISTORY OF THE WORLD IN SEVEN CHEAP THINGS - ...

Nature  money  work  care  food  energy  and lives: these are the seven things that have made
our world and will shape its future. In making these things cheap  modern commerce has
transformed  governed  and devastated Earth. In A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things 
Raj Patel and Jason W. Moore present a new approach to analyzing today's planetary emergencies.
Bringing the latest ecological research together with histories of colonialism  indigenous
struggles  slave revolts  and other rebellions and uprisings  Patel and Moore demonstrate that
throughout history  crises have always prompted fresh strategies to make the world cheap and
safe for capitalism. At a time of crisis in all seven cheap things  innovative and systemic
thinking is urgently required. This book proposes a radical new way of understanding-and
reclaiming-the planet in the turbulent twenty-first century.
