Abstract

The initiative, organized by PhD students from the Institute of Economics at the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, offers an in-depth exploration of the concept of "proletarian ecology" and the political potential of the working class and trade unions in the context of contemporary environmental challenges.

Matthew T. Huber, Professor at Syracuse University and author of Climate Change as Class War, will present his work and perspectives.

The seminar will be an opportunity to collectively explore and discuss these themes.
