BEYOND BARBARISM - MATHEW LAWRENCE LAURIE LAYBO...

The environment is collapsing at a rapid rate  and in increasingly unpredictable ways. Everyone
knows that this is happening  and yet the only politics that is emerging to tackle it are
coming from the increasingly nativist far-right. How should the left respond? In Beyond
Barbarism  two rising stars of the British left lay down a set of proposals for a fundamental
re-shaping of the global economy and offer a roadmap for tackling climate breakdown. Building
on the debates surrounding the Green New Deal  debates that both authors have been central to 
Lawrence and Laybourn argue that it is not enough merely to spend our way out of the crisis.
Instead we need to rapidly reshape the shape and purpose of the economy  away from the emphasis
on endless growth and towards creating a healthy and flourishing environment for everyone. This
must be based on the principles of internationalism and the democratic ownership of the
economy. Beyond Barbarism is a radical and achievable manifesto for a new politics and a new
economics capable of tackling climate breakdown.
