In the organizer's words:

Lecture by Jason Moore
Followed by a discussion with Carla Reemtsma. Moderated by Alexander Karschnia

Marx discovered two sources of all wealth: the earth (nature) and the worker (labor). In the history of the labor movement, the latter has long been the focus. In recent years, attention has shifted to the former, or rather to the relationship between the two. With his "world ecology" approach, Jason Moore is one of the most important representatives of this new generation of eco-Marxists. Instead of the Anthropocene, he prefers to speak of the "Capitalocene." We can only reorganize our "metabolism with nature" if we no longer view society and nature as two separate boxes, but as mutually connected in a "web of life." But how do we get from rollback and inevitable climate catastrophe to socialism in the web of life, from cultures of fear to ecologies of hope?

Followed by a reception in the Sauriersaal.
