Towards a Green Democratic Revolution

Mouffe is unrepentant. Her new book, Towards a Green Democratic Revolution, maintains that left populism is more relevant than ever in light of climate breakdown and the Covid pandemic. – Oliver Eagleton * New Statesman *Praise for For a Left Populism * : *Influencing left parties as they enter government, from Greece to Portugal to Mexico. It is a beach-sized introduction to a major left thinker of the twenty-first century. – Paul Mason * Guardian *An admirable attempt to get us thinking again about what a worthwhile politics might look like, one based on notions of equality, ecology, sovereignty, solidarity and social justice – Gavin Jacobson * New Statesman *Refreshingly bereft of the sputtering outrage and bafflement that characterizes the growing genre of liberal self-help books, Mouffe channels populism’s agonistic clarity – Thea Riofrancos * n+1 *Praise for Agonistics * : *Mouffe represents a position that every serious student of contemporary political thought must acknowledge and come to terms with * Philosopher’s Magazine *
