Conflict, Climate and Inequalities

This book offers a holistic framework for understanding the complex global transformations defining the current historical moment. Centred on three major themes, international relations, climate change, and inequality, it integrates insights from physics, complexity science, political economy, and development studies. The authors argue that the growing and seemingly unstoppable centralization of capital undermines national democracies, fuels wars, degrades the environment, and exacerbates global hunger. Combining empirical data with interdisciplinary perspectives, the book challenges dominant narratives and serves as a foundational guide for those seeking to understand the roots of today’s crises and explore alternative paths forward.
