John Bellamy Foster - The Return of Nature: Socialism and Ecology

John Bellamy Foster's classic work Marx's Ecology was published in 2000. Since then it has rightly become a classic study of the ecological core to Karl Marx's thought. The Return of Nature is his latest work which, he says, has taken nearly twenty years of research.

This detailed study of those scientists, thinkers, activists and socialists who, in the years following the death of Marx developed and expanded the dialectical thinking that Marx and Engels first developed, is ground-breaking. It will join Marx's Ecology as a classic work of radical ecology.

My review of John Bellamy Foster's book was published in the International Socialism Journal 167, July 2020. You can read it here.
