Nature, money, work, care, food, energy, & lives: these are the seven things that have made our world & will shape its future. In making these things cheap, modern commerce has transformed, governed, & devastated Earth.

In A History of the World in Seven Cheap Things, Raj Patel & Jason W. Moore present a new approach to analyzing today’s planetary emergencies. Bringing the latest ecological research together with histories of colonialism, indigenous struggles, slave revolts, & other rebellions & uprisings, Patel & Moore demonstrate that throughout history, crises have always prompted fresh strategies to make the world cheap & safe for capitalism.

At a time of crisis in all seven cheap things, innovative & systemic thinking is urgently required. This book proposes a radical new way of understanding—& reclaiming—the planet in the turbulent twenty-first century.
