Ten Theses of a Critique of a Green Economy

One of the BUKO working group has recently published ten theses of a critique of a green economy. “In the following 10 theses we will show why the Green Economy will have to fail in meeting its claim of greening the economy, which is due to the prevailing capitalist and imperialist conditions as well as the unquestioned faith in progress. Strategies of the Green Economy will not be able to outweigh the social and ecological contradictions of capitalism, at best the strategies are able to revise these contradictions.”  The theses are available in English, German and Spanish.
