2015

Le due crisi in titolo sono due facce di una stessa medaglia; e il tema verrà trattato su questa rivista in due parti divise solo al fine di agevolare la lettura. Nella Parte I si evidenzia come la crisi ambientale derivi dal generale rapporto di predazione e spoliazione delle risorse naturali, caratteristico del modo capitalistico di produzione e consumo; ancor più devastante nella sua attuale fase “iperliberista”.
