Books like Re-Enchanting Humanity by Murray Bookchin

A landmark study that models the limits of Earth’s resources, warning that unchecked growth could trigger ecological and economic collapse within a century.

Emma Goldman's classic essays examine anarchism as a vision for a disciplined, fear‑free society that eliminates poverty and social conflict.

For the anarchist movement, the 1990s saw a period of defence against capital’s accelerating embrace of environmental destruction which helped to define the movement through to today. Discourse ranged from a red embrace of automation and demands for a new society based on rapid industrial advance, through considered skepticism at the tools of the master ever being truly fit for the needs of the ruled, to the apocalyptic visions of the primitivists. With its first edition published in 1993, featuring contributions from influential figures including Brian Morris and Murray Bookchin, deep ecology and anarchism remains a thoughtful contribution to what has belatedly become that most mainstream of questions — how do we save ourselves from the havoc we’re wreaking?

According to Murray Bookchin, a humane solution to the climate crisis—a crisis he was among the first to identify—will require replacing industrial capitalism with an egalitarian, ecological society, decentralized democratic communities, and sustainable technologies like solar power, organic agriculture, and humanly scaled industries. Since he first penned these ideas, our situation has only gotten worse, and people want answers. Drawing on rich traditions of ecological science, anthropology, history, utopian philosophy, and ethics, Remaking Society offers today's environmentalists a coherent framework for social and ecological reconstruction. This pioneering work on nature and society provides readers with clear strategies for averting disaster.
