In an interview published by El Salto‘s Radical Magazine, Drew Pendergrass, co-author of Half-Earth Socialism (with Troy Vettese), discusses the need to imagine alternatives to capitalism in response to the ecological crisis.
Pendergrass reflects on the role of economic planning in organising a society around ecological limits and collective needs. He also discusses how social movements can turn moments of crisis into opportunities for social transformation, arguing that the political meaning of a disaster depends on how it is understood and contested through social struggle.
The interview also explores the relationship between socialist organising and broader coalitions, highlighting the importance of building alliances around shared goals while maintaining clarity about political perspectives.
