Smith\nMurray E.G. Smith is Professor of Sociology and Labour Studies at Brock University. He has been active on the socialist left in Canada since the 1970s, participating in a variety of campaigns and progressive movements for social change.\nJonah Butovsky\nJonah Butovsky is associate professor of sociology at Brock University.\nJosh J. Watterton\nJoshua J. Watterton is pursuing a PhD in geography at York University.\nAbout Radical May\nRadical May brings together authors and publishers of all continents for an inspiring and multilingual programme of round tables, talks and debates with some of the world’s leading radical thinkers.\nWith events running in many different time zones and languages, we speak to a truly global audience—people and organisations who wish to challenge our broken social and economic systems and organize for a better, more radical future.\n\nAbout the book\nTwenty-first-century capitalism has little more to offer than a menu of despair: pandemics, deepening inequality, worsening depression, runaway climate change, intensifying authoritarianism and escalating militarism. Twilight Capitalism offers a wide-ranging analysis of the origins, implications and scope of the “combined” social crisis of 2020 and beyond. A compelling case is made that Karl Marx’s critical analysis of capitalism, along with his program of class-struggle socialism, is essential to understanding and addressing the most important social, economic and ecological problems of our time.\n\nPurchase a copy of Twilight Capitalism: Karl Marx and the Decay of the Profit System here: https://fernwoodpublishing.ca/book/twilight-capitalism\n\n
