Our era is so crisis-ridden that all politics is now a politics of transition. How do we diminish and then overcome the power of capital? How do we build an economy based on a logic of communal, social control?
The book, Radical Abundance, sets out what this transition looks like and lays out a strategy for achieving it. Drawing from experiences as broad as the communal system of Venezuela, the struggle over Berlin’s housing or the implementation of communal planning systems in the Basque country, we argue that transition is determined by two invariant features: contested reproduction and the building of institutions of popular protagonism.
Join the authors (Kai Heron, Keir Milburn and Bertie Russell) for a discussion on what this could look like in the UK, with proposals for the first steps for cohering a movement tendency to bring it about.
Copies of the book Radical Abundance: How to Win a Green Democratic Future will be available at the event.
