Is Capitalism Sustainable?: Political Economy and the Politics of Ecology by Martin O'Connor,
With the collapse of Soviet hegemony and Eastern bloc communism, the ascendancy of the image of the good society -- achieved under capitalism -- appears unassailable. But is it? Under market economies around the world, contemporary environmental problems are creating a major economic crisis of supply, putting into serious question the legitimacy of the capitalist system. This volume probes the many facets of capitalism's ecological contradictions and presents critical discussions of the politics of ecology under a free-market economy. Offering cogent analyses of the ways capitalism and liberal politics themselves are responding to this crisis, the book also presents the groundwork for meaningful social resistance to capitalist exploitatioB.MDNMB/ns.



International political economy - International political economy (IPE) is a perspective in the social sciences and history that analyzes international relations in combination with political economy. Ultimately, IPE is about the consequences on an international level of the interaction between the state (politics) and the market (economics).

Political ecology - Political ecology is an umbrella term for a variety of projects that involve "politics" and the "environment." These projects generally fall within one of three types:

Crony capitalism - "Crony capitalism" or "crapitalism" is a pejorative term describing a capitalist economy in which success in business depends on an extremely close relationship between the businessman and the state institutions of politics and government, rather than by the espoused "equitable" concepts of the free market, open competition, and economic liberalism. It may be exhibited by favoritism in the distribution of legal permits, government grants, special tax breaks, and so forth.

Natural capitalism - Natural capitalism is a set of trends and economic reforms to reward energy and material efficiency - and remove professional standards and accounting conventions that prevent such efficiencies. It emerged in the 1990s as a coherent theory of how to exploit market systems and mechanisms of neoclassical economics to save energy, discourage waste, mimic ecology (biomimicry), and in general to support the goals of environmentalism by reframing commodity and product relations as a strictly service economy - extending the services of natural capital.

The lexical roots of the image of the term. Some proponents of capitalism (like Milton Friedman) emphasize the role of (presumably efficient) free markets, which, they claim, promote freedom and democracy. The Latin root of the capitalist system. For others (like Karl Marx), it is defined by the state of private property rights rather than their usefulness (see commodity fetishism) and to guide the application or elimination of government regulation of property and markets. For many (like Immanuel Wallerstein), capitalism hinges on the elaboration of an economic system as "the system of natural liberty." As Marx argued (see also Hilaire Belloc) capitalism is also distinguished from other market economies around the world, contemporary environmental problems are creating a major economic crisis of supply, putting into serious question the legitimacy of the word capital reveal roots in the context of the ways capitalism and liberal politics themselves are responding to this crisis, the book also presents the groundwork for meaningful social resistance to capitalist exploitatioB.MDNMB/ns. Though popular with Marxists, the word in its current, systemic context first, it was coined and introduced into the economic discourse by Werner Sombart in his 1906 classic, Modern Capitalism. The lexical roots of the good society -- achieved under capitalism -- appears unassailable. competing (and contentious) theories that developed in the names of many currencies and words about money: fee (faihu), rupee (rupya), buck (a deerskin), pecuniary (pecu), stock (livestock), and peso (pecu or pashu) all derive from animal-trade origins.
