Emergency steps to get through the crisis also show us how we could build a different society that’s not beholden to capital.Unless we address the root cause of those problems in the structure of our economic system, we’ll never be able to solve them.This a moment where we can use this socialist imagination to construct an alternative society. This is not utopian. Our needs can only be taken care of through collective action.David Harvey is a distinguished professor of anthropology and geography at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. His latest books are The Anti-Capitalist Chronicles and The Ways of the World .Amidst waves of economic crises, class struggle and neo-fascist reaction, few possess the clarity and foresight of world-renowned theorist, David Harvey. Since the publication of his bestsellingA Brief History of Neoliberalism, Harvey has been tracking the evolution of the capitalist system as well as tides of radical opposition rising against it. InThe Anti-Capitalist Chronicles, Harvey introduces new ways of understanding the crisis of global capitalism and the struggles for a better world.While accounting for violence and disaster, Harvey also chronicles hope and possibility. By way of conversations about neoliberalism, capitalism, globalisation, the environment, technology and social movements, he outlines, with characteristic brilliance, how socialist alternatives are being imagined under very difficult circumstances.In understanding the economic, political and social dimensions of the crisis, Harvey s analysis inThe Anti-Capitalist Chronicleswill be of strategic importance to anyone wanting to both understand and change the world.We asked David Harvey which of Marx s texts he would recommend reading given our current political situation and why Here s what he had to say!
