Kajsa Borgnäs - Böcker

Efter åtta år i regering befinner sig Socialdemokraterna åter i opposition. Valförlusten 2022 skedde i en orolig tid med stora samhällsproblem. Ska arbetarrörelsen återigen lyckas forma en bättre framtiden behövs förnyelse, diskussion och omprövning av gamla sanningar. Behovet av en ny samhällsanalys är stort och frågan om vilken grund socialdemokratin står på inför nästa val kräver ett svar. Vår Tid är Tankesmedjan Tiden och Aktuellt i Politikens bidrag till en förnyad samhällsanalys. Med tjugo texter vill vi komplettera och bredda det arbete som Socialdemokraterna gör. Vi är övertygade om att den här antologin innehåller analyser relevanta för den som vill förstå vår tid bättre och samhällsproblemen Sverige står inför.

As the global economy seeks to recover from the financial crisis and warnings about the consequences of climate change abound, it is clear that we need a fundamentally new approach to tackle these issues. This innovative book offers a unique perspective, stressing the necessity of both ecological and social change as it discusses how to create a "red-green" or "eco-socialist" society. Examining the current crises of welfare capitalism as well as the challenges and conflicts of an eco-socialist society, the book proposes a new social order that would combine the ideals of egalitarianism and of environmental sustainability. It analyses the key social and ecological issues related to the welfare state, including green Keynesianism, ecological Marxism, the limits of growth and no-growth, capitalist barriers to a renewable energy transition, proposals for a universal basic income and the role of technology. Finally, the book outlines possible paths of transformation towards creating an eco-socialist society, drawing out lessons that can be applied internationally. This book will be of great interest to students and researchers in economics, environmental studies and political science.
