Surviving Democracy Mitigating Climate Change in a Neoliberalized World

"An extraordinary work that ties the climate emergency squarely to the neoliberal world model in ways many may have suspected but no one had yet spelled out in such clarity and depth. I opened this book and found that I could not close it until reading through to the end. It's deeply impressive, rich, lucid, moving, and makes me wonder -- how does it happen that one person comes to know so much?" - James K. Galbraith, The University of Texas at Austin and author, Inequality: What Everyone Needs to Know

"This book serves as wake-up call: for US Political Science and its inattention to the climate crisis; for defenders of Europe as a progressive leader on the environment; and, for those who doubt the extent to which organized interests undercut democratic governance. Ambitious in scope, sharply written and drawing on a range of key thinkers, the book offers important ideas on the relationship between democracy and climate change." - Justin Robertson, City University of Hong Kong

"We live in a moment of bubbles, and this book reminds us just how crucial it is for us to understand and to deflate them.
