Description:
Everything Must Change!brings together prominent commentators from around the world to present a rich and nuanced weighing of progressive possibilities in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In these pages you’ll encounter influential voices across the left, ranging fromRoger WaterstoNoam Chomsky,Slavoj Ĺ˝iĹľektoSaskia Sassen.Gael GarcĂa Bernal,Brian Eno, andLarry Charlesexamine the pandemic’s more cultural and artistic consequences, touching on topics of love, play, comedy, dreaming, and time. Their words sit alongside analyses of the paradoxes and possibilities of debt, internationalism, and solidarity byAstra Taylor,David Graeber,Vijay Prashad, andStephanie Kelton.
Burgeoning surveillance and control measures in the name of public health are a concern for many of the contributors here, includingShoshana ZuboffandEvgeny Morozov, as are the opportunities presented by the crisis for exploitation by financiers, technocrats, and the far right.
Against a return to the normal and, indeed, the notion that there ever was such a thing, these conversations insist that urgent, systemic change is needed to tackle not only the pandemics arising from the human destruction of nature, but also the ceaseless debilitations of contemporary global capitalism.
