Approaching Marxism is an educational series providing introductions to core Marxist concepts, their ambiguities and development, and the debates that they have spawned since. In this episode, we take a look at Marx's theory of the metabolic rift, its articulation through the work of the second-wave of contemporary western ecosocialist thought (particularly in the work of John Bellamy-Foster), the importance of this theory in disputes between first-wave and second-wave modern ecosocialist thought, and more recent disputes over the dialectics of nature.
A full reading list and a lesson plan to aid with the concepts outlined in this video is available, for free, on our Patreon: [ Ссылка ]
We are very happy to say that Jason W. Moore, author of Capitalism in the Web of Life and co-cordinator of the World Ecology Research Network contributed to this episode's coverage of debates over the dialectics of nature. Moore also recently appeared on the Prolekult podcast.
