Daniel Tanuro — The threats of AI underline the urgency of a revolutionary, ecosocialist break with the civilisation of capitalist growth.

A call to all those who defend human dignity and strive for an alternative to destructive capitalism to converge in Brussels from May 15-17 for the 7th International Ecosocialist Encounters.

Peter Boyle — Any significant revolutionary change that takes place this century will have to do so amid catastrophic global climate change.

Cyn Huang — Youth-led movements against genocide, austerity, and the continued destruction of our natural resources have sprung up all around the world. Cohering these movements around class politics is key to avoiding barbarism.
