The GND has the potential of becoming one of the largest global campaigns of our times and it started in Ann Pettifor s flat In 2008 the first Green New Deal was devised by Pettifor and a group of English economist and thinkers but was ignored within the tumults of the financial crash A decade later the ideas was revived within the democratic socialists in the US forefront by Alexandria Ocasio Cortez The Green New Deal demands a radical and urgent reversal of the current state of the global economy including total de carbonisation and a commitment to fairness and social justice Critics on all sides have been quick to observe that the GND is a pipe dream that could never be implemented and would cost the earth But as Ann Pettifor shows we need to rethink the function of money and how it works within the global system How can we bail out the banks but not the planet We have to stop thinking about the imperative of economic growth nothing grows for ever The program will be a long term project but it needs to start immediately

¿Qué empuja a una persona a salir a la calle y movilizarse junto a otras? ¿Cuál es el punto de inflexión para que un conflicto estalle? ¿Estamos ante el fin de la protesta social tal y como la habíamos conocido hasta ahora? Son preguntas que surgen en un contexto caracterizado por la velocidad de los cambios, con sociedades cada vez mas complejas y la irrupcion de fenomenos que implican nuevos riesgos globales, cuyos efectos experimentamos ya en nuestra vida cotidiana.

How do policy and politics influence the social conditions that generate health outcomes Reduced life expectancy worsening health outcomes health inequity and declining health care options these are now realities for most Americans However in a country of more than 325 million people addressing everyone s issues is challenging How can we effect beneficial change for everyone so we all can thrive What is the great equalizer In this book Daniel E Dawes argues that political determinants of health create the social drivers including poor environmental conditions inadequate transportation unsafe neighborhoods and lack of healthy food options that affect all other dynamics of health By understanding these determinants their origins and their impact on the equitable distribution of opportunities and resources we will be better equipped to develop and implement actionable solutions to close the health gap Dawes draws on his firsthand experience helping to shape major federal policies including the Affordable Care Act to describe the history of efforts to address the political determinants that have resulted in health inequities Taking us further upstream to the underlying source of the causes of inequities Dawes examines the political decisions that lea

Entre 1968 y 1977, Italia fue el laboratorio más avanzado de la vasta constelación de movimientos que conocemos bajo el sobrenombre del año 1968. En el centro de esta experiencia se sitúa Potere Operaio. Este grupo de la izquierda comunista italiana fue uno de los elementos determinantes del periodo y, junto a Lotta Continua, constituyo el embrion de la Autonomia, la cual florece en la explosion de 1977. Potere Operaio fue ademas el primer gran ensayo politico del obrerismo, corriente politica e intelectual que incluye al propio Bifo y a figuras como Mario Tronti, Toni Negri, Paolo Virno o Sergio Bologna.A traves del recorrido del operaismo italiano y de la corta historia de Potere Operaio, Franco Berardi no nos presenta, sin embargo, un ejercicio de historiografia politica, mucho menos un ensayo provinciano sobre una experiencia italiana. Antes al contrario, en esos años y en esas practicas, encuentra un momento decisivo en la crisis de la modernidad. La crisis y finalmente el colapso del movimiento italiano se explica, de hecho, en estos fulgores de la ultima modernidad, todavia marcada por la predominancia paradigmatica del leninismo. No obstante, en el obrerismo, Bifo tambien observa la promesa de otro tipo de politica, que llama composicionismo. Esta se caracteriza por la creacion de formas de vida mas alla del trabajo asalariado y del dominio industrial.En una audaz proyeccion sobre el futuro, el libro culmina con el analisis de como la reaccion de las decadas de 1980 y 1990, que discurre en paralelo a la digitalizacion del trabajo y la cooperacion en red, ha producido modalidades sociales caracterizadas menos por las capacidades de emancipacion que se abrieron en la decada de 1970, como por nuevas formas de sometimiento y enfermedad psiquicosocial, encarnadas en la nueva ola de identitarismos nacionalistas y parafascistas.
