Enormes incendios forestales y de matorrales, aguaceros gigantescos, bosques moribundos , inundaciones, catástrofes por sequías y tornados: noticias de catástrofes casi diarias en periódicos y tickers de noticias. Una serie de procesos irreversibles de destrucción y autodestrucción se están desarrollando en la naturaleza, poniendo en cuestión la supervivencia en cada vez más regiones. Estos procesos lo dejan claro: ¡la catástrofe ecológica global ha comenzado! Los responsables principales de este desarrollo son los supermonopolios internacionales, quienes en su caza por la ganancia máxima, sin piedad y a pesar de saberlo mejor, pasan por alto la necesidad urgente de protección del medio ambiente y las medidas inmediatas que se requieren agudamente. Todos aquellos que no quieran sucumbir en la catástrofe ecológica global hoy más que nunca están desafiadas a emprender una lucha transformadora de la sociedad. El libro pone inequívocamente en claro: la salvación de la humanidad sólo será posible en el verdadero socialismo. Este libro es el tomo suplementario del libro ¡Alarma de catástrofe! ¿Qué hacer contra la destrucción deliberada de la unidad entre el ser humano y la naturaleza?, publicado en 2014. El tomo suplementario da la prueba de que muchos de los pronósticos entonces realizados se están materializando más rápido de lo esperado. ¡Estamos en una carrera contra el tiempo!

Unprecedented levels of wealth, technology and institutional capacity can forge a just, peaceful and ecologically resilient future. However, the authors argue, social polarization, geo-political conflict and environmental degradation are threatening the long-term well-being of humanity and the planet. Global Sustainability explores the alternative futures that could emerge from the resolution of these antagonisms. Based on extensive international and interdisciplinary research, the book identifies the perils of market-driven scenarios and considers the possibility of the failure of conventional approaches. It also, however, presents a vision of the possibility of a 'Great Transition' in which revised human values and development goals bring a new stage of civilization. It will be essential reading for all scholars and professionals interested in the future of the environment, international affairs, and sustainable development.

Western civilization is the Utopia of a better and higher life on Earth. The globalization of neo-liberalism proves that this project has failed. The paradigm of «Critical Theory of Patriarchy» explains this failure and discusses alternatives. By confronting the central civilizations in history, the egalitarian, life-oriented matriarchal one, and the hierarchical, nature and life dominating, hostile patriarchal one, we see that 5000 years of patriarchy have «replaced» matriarchies and nature itself by a «progressive» counter-world of «capital». This transformation characterizes «capitalist patriarchy» including «socialism». Its demise is due to the «alchemical» destruction of the world's resources, thought of, theologically legitimized and fetishized as «creation». This violence is not recognized. Elites have, instead, begun with a new «military alchemy», treating the whole Planet as weapon of mass destruction. Hence, the «Planetary Movement for Mother Earth».
