Critical engagements with “Climate Change as Class War”—the climate, public power, and the means of social reproduction

Abstract

Matt Huber’s book Climate Change as Class War: Building Socialism on a Warming Planet has been fiercely debated in terms of its implications for the US climate movement, but it also offers important implications for how we think about the politics of social reproduction beyond US borders. This review draws out theoretical implications from Huber’s work that are especially relevant for understanding social movements, social reproduction, and the state in this ecological moment. This paper is part of the SPE Special Theme “Critical Engagements with ‘Climate Change as Class War.’”
