»En av världens mest inflytelserika tänkare i frågor om klimat och kapital« | Ola Söderholm
»Ett mästerverk som fyller ett akut behov« | John Bellamy Foster, Monthly Review
»Andreas Malm knyter vår oförmåga att agera till dagens offentlighet: i en värld där vi tillbringar allt mer tid stirrande ner i våra skärmar blir själva planeten allt mer avlägsen.« | Karin Pettersson, Aftonbladet
»Direkt nödvändig läsning« | Expressen
Skogar brinner. Glaciärer kollapsar. Haven stiger. Djurarter raderas från planetens yta. Människor flyr från vad som en gång var deras hem. Återstår gör klimatkaos, panik - och organisering. Men ändå råder business as usual. Andreas Malms Stormens utveckling: Att leva i den globala uppvärmningens tid är en av de senaste årens mest uppmärksammade böcker. Ett brandtal som flytt forskningens anonymitet; som kommit att älskas och studeras av läsare världen över. Malm går till angrepp mot humanismens förhärskande teoribildning om relationen mellan människa, samhälle och natur, liksom mot vårt sätt att leva. Här tecknas linjen mellan kapitalets vinstintressen och klimatkrisens accelererande effekter. Ett flammande manifest, i brytpunkten mellan forskning och aktivism, som tagit världen med storm - levererat av en stor samtida tänkare.
ANDREAS MALM [f. 1977] är fil.dr i humanekologi vid Lunds universitet, författare och politisk aktivist. De senaste två decennierna har han undersökt och debatterat klimatfrågan, liksom den politiska situationen i Mellanöstern. Han har tidigare bland annat gett ut boken Det är vår bestämda uppfattning att om ingenting görs nu kommer det att vara för sent.

The science on climate change has been clear for a very long time now. Yet despite decades of appeals, mass street protests, petition campaigns, and peaceful demonstrations, we are still facing a booming fossil fuel industry, rising seas, rising emission levels, and a rising temperature. With the stakes so high, why haven't we moved beyond peaceful protest? In this lyrical manifesto, noted climate scholar (and saboteur of SUV tires and coal mines) Andreas Malm makes an impassioned call for the climate movement to escalate its tactics in the face of ecological collapse. We need, he argues, to force fossil fuel extraction to stop--with our actions, with our bodies, and by defusing and destroying its tools. We need, in short, to start blowing up some oil pipelines.Offering a counter-history of how mass popular change has occurred, from the democratic revolutions overthrowing dictators to the movement against apartheid and for women's suffrage, Malm argues that the strategic acceptance of property destruction and violence has been the only route for revolutionary change. In a braided narrative that moves from the forests of Germany and the streets of London to the deserts of Iraq, Malm offers us an incisive discussion of the politics and ethics of pacifism and violence, democracy and social change, strategy and tactics, and a movement compelled by both the heart and the mind. Here is how we fight in a world on fire.

The more we know about the catastrophic implications of climate change, the more fossil fuels we burn. How did we end up in this mess?In this masterful new history, Andreas Malm claims it all began in Britain with the rise of steam power. But why did manufacturers turn from traditional sources of power, notably water mills, to an engine fired by coal? Contrary to established views, steam offered neither cheaper nor more abundant energy-but rather superior control of subordinate labour. Animated by fossil fuels, capital could concentrate production at the most profitable sites and during the most convenient hours, as it continues to do today. Sweeping from nineteenth-century Manchester to the emissions explosion in China, from the original triumph of coal to the stalled shift to renewables, this study hones in on the burning heart of capital and demonstrates, in unprecedented depth, that turning down the heat will mean a radical overthrow of the current economic order.

»En av världens mest inflytelserika tänkare i frågor om klimat och kapital« | Ola Söderholm
En stridsskrift från en av samtidens mest främsta röster i klimatfrågor
Betydelsen av seklets första verkligt stora pandemi kan inte underskattas. Regeringar talar om krig, samtidigt som de säger att allt snart ska bli som vanligt. Men tänk om normaliteten inte längre är möjlig? Om världen trots allt kan mobilisera sig på det vis som den gjorde våren 2020, borde det även vara möjligt att konfrontera den förödelse som utgör klimatförändringarna. Corona, klimatet & det kroniska nödläget är en stridsskrift från en av världens främsta tänkare i frågor om människans överlevnad. Andreas Malm kräver att tidens krigstillstånd införs på permanent basis, för att möta en större och farligare fiende. Det finns inte längre tid för förnekelse.
ANDREAS MALM [f. 1977] är fil dr. i humanekologi vid Lunds universitet, författare och politisk aktivist. De senaste två decennierna har han undersökt och debatterat klimatfrågan.

The world is crossing the 1.5°C global warming limit, perhaps exceeding 2°C soon after. What is to be done when these boundaries, set by the Paris Agreement, have been passed? In the overshoot era, schemes proliferate for muscular adaptation or for new technologies to turn the heat down at a later date by removing CO2 from the air or blocking sunlight. Such technologies are by no means safe; they come with immense risks and provide an excuse for those who would prefer to avoid limiting emissions in the present. But do they also hold out some potential? Can the catastrophe be reversed, masked or simply adapted to once it is a fact? Or will any such roundabout measures simply make things worse?The Long Heat maps the new front lines in the struggle for a liveable planet and insists on the climate revolution long overdue. In the end, no technology can absolve us of responsibility for our planet and each other.

The world is on the cusp of one and a half degrees of warming - just the rise it has committed itself to avoiding. Heat at such levels would be intolerable. Even before one and a half, seasons of climate disaster have struck with ever more devastating force, and yet a notion has taken hold that the cause is now lost: the intolerable has become unavoidable. The limit will be overshot - perhaps two degrees as well - and the best we can do is cool down the Earth at some later point, towards the end of the century, by means of technologies not yet proven.How did this happen? How could the idea of overshoot gain such traction? What forces are driving us into a climate that people - particularly poor people in the global South - won't be able to cope with? In Overshoot: How the World Surrendered to Climate Breakdown, Andreas Malm and Wim Carton present a history of the present phase of the crisis, likely to extend decades into the future, as the fossil fuel industry swims in the largest profits ever made. Money continues to flow into the construction of pipelines, platforms, terminals, mines - assets that will have to be destroyed for the planet to remain liveable. Too much heat has become officially acceptable because such revolutionary destruction is not. But should the rest of us abide by that priority?Unflinchingly critical of business-as-usual and the calls for surrender to it, sweeping in scope, stirring and sobering, Overshoot lays out the stakes for the climate struggle in the years ahead.

Destruction of Palestine Is the Destruction of the Earth

Israel''s pulverization of Gaza since October 7, 2023 is not only a humanitarian crisis, but an environmental catastrophe. Far from the first event of its kind, the devastation Israel has inflicted on Palestine since October 2023 has merely ushered in a new phase in a long history of colonization and extraction that reaches back to the nineteenth century. In this book, Andreas Malm argues that a true understanding of the present crisis requires a longue dur�e analysis of Palestine''s subjugation to fossil empire. Returning to the British empire''s first use of steam-power in war, in which it destroyed the Palestinian city of Akka, Malm traces the development of Britain''s fossil empire and shows how this enduring commitment to fossil energy continues to drive Western support for the destruction of Palestine today.
Iran on the Brink

While the world keeps its eyes riveted on Iran's nuclear programme, the Islamic Republic has gone through a crisis of its own. This book shows how soaring unemployment and poverty has given way to social protest. A new labour movement has come to the fore. Although strikes are banned, workers are beginning to organise and underground networks are challenging the rule of the mullahs from within.The authors offer a unique portrait of the social upheaval, why it is happening and where it may take the country. Following the fall of reformism, the rise of Ahmadinejad and the recent outbursts of ethnic violence, this book provides rare insights into the inner contradictions of the Islamic Republic. The second part of the book deals with the international issues facing Iran - in particular the nuclear question, Iran's oil reserves and the serious threat of invasion. It is a sobering account of the realities of life in Iran, and the threat that war poses to the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people.

This volume engages with the alarming convergence of far right thinking and the ecological crisis in contemporary society. Growing out of the first international conference on political ecologies of the far right, the volume gathers crucial insights from authorities in the field as well as promising early career researchers. With cases ranging from ethnographical accounts of fossil fuel populist protest, historical analysis of the evangelical support for fossil fuels to interrogations of the settler colonial identities and material conditions defended by far right actors around the world, the book provides scholars, students and activists with ways to understand and counter these developments.An electronic edition of this book is freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND) licence.

An attack on the idea that nature and society are impossible to distinguish from each otherIn a world careening towards climate chaos, nature is dead. It can no longer be separated from society. Everything is a blur of hybrids, where humans possess no exceptional agency to set them apart from dead matter. But is it really so? In this blistering polemic and theoretical manifesto, Andreas Malm develops a counterargument: in a warming world, nature comes roaring back, and it is more important than ever to distinguish between the natural and the social. Only with a unique agency attributed to humans can resistance become conceivable.

Young people are inheriting a world of climate catastrophe. Young people are also one of the strongest forces leading movements for climate justice, and to halt the fossil fuel emissions that are making our Earth unlivable. As Greta Thunberg and the Fridays for the Future movement have made clear, solutions offered by adults are far too little, far too late: the measures in unenforceable international agreements won't halt our reliance on fossil fuels, or take the drastic steps humans need to take in order to keep our planet livable.What kinds of drastic steps are needed? What kind of bold actions can the climate justice begin using to bring a stop to climate destruction, and that can be employed alongside existing strategies of mass protest, awareness, and legal appeals? Why does our society consider profit for oil companies more important than the future of young people and the health of our shared environment? In this adaptation of Andreas Malm's best-selling book on the need for a bolder, more confrontational climate justice movement, How to Blow Up a Pipeline these urgent questions are brought to the most important audience of all: those who are growing up in a world on fire.

In recent years, the far right has done everything in its power to accelerate the heating: an American president who believes it is a hoax has removed limits on fossil fuel production. The Brazilian president has opened the Amazon and watched it burn. In Europe, parties denying the crisis and insisting on maximum combustion have stormed into office, from Sweden to Spain. On the brink of breakdown, the forces most aggressively promoting business-as-usual have surged - always in defense of white privilege, against supposed threats from non-white others. Where have they come from? The first study of the far right in the climate crisis, White Skin, Black Fuel: On the Danger of Fossil Fascism presents an eye-opening sweep of a novel political constellation, and reveals its deep historical roots. Fossil-fueled technologies were born steeped in racism. None loved them more passionately than the classical fascists. As such forces rise to the surface, some profess to have the solution - closing borders to save the climate. Epic and riveting, White Skin, Black Fuel traces a future of political fronts that can only heat up.

The economic and social impact of the coronavirus pandemic has been unprecedented. Governments have spoken of being at war and find themselves forced to seek new powers in order to maintain social order and prevent the spread of the virus. This is often exercised with the notion that we will return to normal as soon as we can. What if that is not possible? Secondly, if the state can mobilize itself in the face of an invisible foe like this pandemic, it should also be able to confront visible dangers such as climate destruction with equal force. In Corona, Climate, Chronic Emergency, leading environmental thinker, Andreas Malm demands that this war-footing state should be applied on a permanent basis to the ongoing climate front line. He offers proposals on how the climate movement should use this present emergency to make that case. There can be no excuse for inaction any longer.

Geoengineering is the deliberate and large-scale intervention in the Earth's climate system in an attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming. Now that climate emergency is upon us, claims that geoengineering is inevitable are rapidly proliferating. How did we get into this situation where the most extreme path now seems a plausible development? Is it an accurate representation of where we are at? Who is this "we" who is talking? What options make it onto the table? Which are left out? Whom does geoengineering serve? Why is the ensemble of projects that goes by that name so salient, even though the community of researchers and advocates is remarkably small? These are some of the questions that the thinkers contributing to this volume are exploring from perspectives ranging from sociology and geography to ethics and Indigenous studies. The editors set out this diverse collection of voices not as a monolithic, unified take on geoengineering, but as a place where creative thinkers, students, and interested environmental and social justice advocates can explore nuanced ideas in more than 240 characters.

Die wissenschaftlichen Fakten bezüglich der Klimakrise, die Daten, die das Massenaussterben und die Erderwärmung beziffern, liegen auf dem Tisch, an dem führende Politikerinnen und Politiker regelmäßig zusammenkommen, um Klimaziele zu vereinbaren. Auf den Straßen vor den Tagungshotels und Regierungspalästen protestieren nicht erst seit gestern immer mehr Menschen. Sie starten Petitionskampagnen und sammeln Unterschriften. Trotzdem haben wir es mit einer nach wie vor boomenden Industrie für fossile Brennstoffe zu tun, die Gewinne steigen kontinuierlich. Ist es also an der Zeit, das kaputt zu machen, was uns kaputt machen wird? In diesem mitreißenden Manifest fordert Andreas Malm nichts weniger als die Eskalation: Wir müssen die Förderung fossiler Brennstoffe zum Stillstand bringen – mit unserem Handeln, unseren Körpern, mit allem, was uns zur Verfügung steht. In seiner historisch fundierten Lesart der Geschichte erfolgreicher sozialer Bewegungen – für das Frauenwahlrecht, gegen die Apartheid – zeigt Andreas Malm, dass jeder dieser Kämpfe Grenzen überschritten hat: Eigentum wurde zerstört, Infrastruktur angegriffen. Nur so konnte der notwendige Druck aufgebaut werden, um Veränderung voranzutreiben. Mit der Leidenschaft eines Aktivisten und dem Wissen eines Forschers diskutiert Andreas Malm das Spannungsfeld zwischen Gewaltfreiheit und direkter Aktion, Strategie und Taktik, Demokratie und sozialer Veränderung. Und zeigt uns, wie wir in einer Welt kämpfen können, die längst in Flammen steht.

Nach der Krise ist vor der Krise ist in der Krise. In seinem hellsichtigen Essay, geschrieben in Berlin in den Wochen des Lockdown, der nicht nur Deutschland im Frühjahr 2020 zu einem abrupten Stillstand zwang, wirft der Klimaaktivist und Humanökologe Andreas Malm die entscheidenden Fragen auf: Wie war es möglich, dass die Staaten des globalen Nordens angesichts der COVID-19-Pandemie so effektiv und entschlossen handelten – und im Hinblick auf die Erderwärmung immer noch nichts tun? Woher kommt die Sehnsucht nach einer Rückkehr zum Normalzustand, der längst schon keiner mehr ist? Und welche Schlüsse lassen sich aus der Kriegsrhetorik, in der über die Pandemie gesprochen wurde, für den Kampf gegen den eigentlichen Krankheitserreger ziehen? Jenem Krankheitserreger, der in Corona nur eine seiner Formen fand, die zeigt: Es gilt, der Zeit der Untätigkeit in Anbetracht des globalen Feindes namens Klimakrise ein entschlossenes Ende zu bereiten.

Das theoretische Grundlagenwerk zur kompromisslosen KlimarevolutionIn diesem glühend polemischen, analytisch versierten und mit Fakten gesättigten Buch entwickelt Andreas Malm ein bestechendes Argument: In einer sich erwärmenden Welt ist es wichtiger denn je, zwischen dem Natürlichen und dem Sozialen zu unterscheiden. Nur durch die spezifisch menschliche Handlungsfähigkeit wird Widerstand möglich und Veränderung denkbar. Aus vielerlei Perspektiven werden die Veränderungen des Klimas und die Erwärmung der Erde analysiert. Angesichts der Dürren und Ernteausfälle, der Überschwemmungskatastrophen und Stürme ungeahnten Ausmaßes, all der realen Auswirkungen, die die Erderwärmung heute schon zeitigt, erscheinen diese Konzepte jedoch nichtig. Für Andreas Malm ist die Klimabewegung der Maßstab, an dem sich Theorie künftig wird messen lassen müssen. Er ruft auf zum klaren Benennen der Gegner und ihrer politischen Verstrickungen, denn der Handlungsträger der Erderwärmung ist allein der Mensch.
