Labour, Nature, Value

Leonardi critiques the ideology of capitalist green economy by engaging André Gorz’s communist and ecological thought, demonstrating how degrowth thinking and Marxist analysis converge as necessary responses to contemporary socio-ecological crises. The work articulates a programmatic vision that challenges the reduction of ecological constraints to market opportunities, instead proposing strategies that diminish biosphere pressure while expanding care work and knowledge production. Published by Verso, a key publisher in the critical theory orbit, this essay synthesizes ecological critique with Marxist political economy to address proliferating global conflicts at the intersection of labour, nature, and value production.
