environmental destruction is bound to further
disturb processes of social reproduction and will
likely produce some nasty efects–including zerosum
conlicts over oil, water, air, and arable land,
conlicts in which broader solidarities give way to
“lifeboat ethics,” to scapegoating and militarism,
and perhaps again to fascism and world war. In
any case, we do not need to rely on such predictions
to see that inance, ecology and social reproduction
are not neatly separated from one another,
but are deeply and inextricably intertwined
