UN MIGLIOR LIBRO DI ECONOMIA DEL 2022 SECONDO IL FINANCIAL TIMES "Un libro fondamentale... The Blue Commons è allo stesso tempo una sintesi brillante, un'analisi bruciante e un'ispirante chiamata all'azione". - David Bollier "Con straordinaria erudizione, passione e lirismo, Guy Standing ordina al lettore di rendersi conto della minaccia rappresentata dalle violente politiche del capitalismo rentier per l'estrazione, lo sfruttamento e l'esaurimento di ciò che è comune a tutti noi, ma anche vitale per la nostra sopravvivenza: il mare e tutto ciò che contiene". - Ann Pettifor "Fa una luce brillante sull'economia degli oceani, indirizzandoci brillantemente verso dove si trova un futuro sostenibile". - Danny Dorling "Questo è un libro potente e visionario, una lettura essenziale per tutti coloro che desiderano un mondo migliore". - Jason Hickel Il mare fornisce più della metà dell'ossigeno che respiriamo, cibo per miliardi di persone e mezzi di sostentamento per centinaia di milioni di persone. Ma le grandi corporazioni stanno saccheggiando gli oceani del mondo, aiutate dalla finanza globale e dagli stati complici, seguendo la massima neoliberista della Crescita Blu. La situazione è disastrosa: sfruttamento e corruzione dilaganti ora guidano tutti gli aspetti dell'economia oceanica, distruggendo comunità, intensificando le disuguaglianze e spingendo le popolazioni ittiche e altre forme di vita oceaniche verso l'estinzione. The Blue Commons è un appello urgente al cambiamento, da un economista in campagna elettorale responsabile di alcune delle soluzioni più innovative alla disuguaglianza degli ultimi tempi. Dalle grandi nazioni che intimidiscono le nazioni più piccole per rinunciare a politiche di pesca ecologiche al profitto della Crown Estate nel requisire gran parte dei fondali marini britannici, la portata del problema globale è sintetizzata qui per la prima volta, così come un kit di strumenti per tutti noi per sollevarci e affrontarlo. Gli oceani sono stati esclusi dalle richieste di un Green New Deal, ma devono essere al centro della lotta contro il cambiamento climatico. Come possiamo farlo? Costruendo un'alternativa Blue Commons: una visione del mondo trasformativa e una nuova serie di proposte che diano priorità ai diritti storici delle comunità locali, al benessere di tutte le persone e, con esso, alla salute dei nostri oceani.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A FINANCIAL TIMES BEST ECONOMICS BOOK OF 2022 'A landmark book. The Blue Commons is at once a brilliant synthesis, a searing analysis, and an inspiring call to action.' - David Bollier'With remarkable erudition, passion and lyricism, Guy Standing commands the reader to wake up to the threat posed by rentier capitalism's violent policies for extraction, exploitation and depletion of that which is both common to us all, but also vital to our survival: the sea and all within it.' - Ann Pettifor 'Shines a bright light on the economy of the oceans, directing us brilliantly towards where a sustainable future lies.' - Danny Dorling'This is a powerful, visionary book - essential reading for all who yearn for a better world.' - Jason HickelThe sea provides more than half the oxygen we breathe, food for billions of people and livelihoods for hundreds of millions. But giant corporations are plundering the world's oceans, aided by global finance and complicit states, following the neoliberal maxim of Blue Growth. The situation is dire: rampant exploitation and corruption now drive all aspects of the ocean economy, destroying communities, intensifying inequalities, and driving fish populations and other ocean life towards extinction.The Blue Commons is an urgent call for change, from a campaigning economist responsible for some of the most innovative solutions to inequality of recent times. From large nations bullying smaller nations into giving up eco-friendly fishing policies to the profiteering by the Crown Estate in commandeering much of the British seabed, the scale of the global problem is synthesised here for the first time, as well as a toolkit for all of us to rise up and tackle it.The oceans have been left out of calls for a Green New Deal but must be at the centre of the fight against climate change. How do we do it? By building a Blue Commons alternative: a transformative worldview and new set of proposals that prioritise the historic rights of local communities, the wellbeing of all people and, with it, the health of our oceans.
