The Green New Deal has become the global emblem for combatting climate change and averting planetary disaster. But it couldn't be more wrong in its characterization of the problem and prescription for what to do about it. Masquerading as the pinnacle of liberal progress, it would lead us down a path just a destructive as the one we're already on.This comprehensive report-at once analytical, philosophical, political, and an accessible, heartfelt call to action-maps an alternative to the scores of energy transition plans drunk on illusory 'tweakerism' and political correctness. Grounded in sober ecology and metaphysics, it outlines what would actually be required to wean society off fossil fuels, avert catastrophic collapse, and claim a sustainable path worthy of dignified human beings. Containing an extensive yet concise exploration of the problématique (why the Green New Deal is flawed and what a genuine one would look like) followed by detailed policy recommendations and fiscal proposals, this is both a roadmap for governments and a valuable resource for anyone interested in energy and building the New World.Unlike other commentary on this topic, The PallasCeres Report is not a Marxist critique, whereby socialist techno-industrial society is presumed to be more sustainable than capitalist techno-industrial society. It does not outline the litany of problems with "renewables" only to conclude that they're still better than fossil fuels. It is not a vague call for 'degrowth' accompanied by a 'circular economy.' Nor does it champion empty rhetoric about 'free energy' that would simply continue to power our destructive system. It is a giant leap outside the box, detailing why soulless modern civilization is unsustainable and how an entirely new way of being can be born at this pivotal time.

Explores how affect and emotion create new ways of understanding contemporary cultural politics in China The growing political conflicts unfolding in China provide an opportunity to rethink the cultural politics of emotion. Although the political formations in the region are laden with a multitude of emotions, they tend to be poorly understood. This book explains why affect and emotion matter in politics from the Mao Zedong to the Xi Jinping era. It makes a unique contribution by investigating the dynamics of political passions and the contexts from which emotional subjects engage in hegemonic struggles through the creation of various cultural forms, including Maoist art and popular films. Topics discussed include the mobilisation of revolutionary emotions in political movements, the desire of nationalism, the virtual affective space created by antagonistic identity politics, the subaltern body as a surface of emotion work, and the blurring of public-private divides on social media. Liu and Shi find that cultural feelings and emotional experiences are crucial for understanding political struggle, as well as debates about the cultural dilemma of the Chinese Dream.
