This is a companion piece to the one I just wrote about Vivek Chibber
calling upon DSA’ers to create beachheads in the working class. It too
is based on a podcast interview with Matt Huber, who has published a
long article in Chibber’s magazine titled “Ecological Politics for the
Working Class
<https://catalyst-journal.com/vol3/no1/ecological-politics-for-the-working-class>”
that dismisses the need for ecological limits. Like Chibber, this
Syracuse professor looks askance at the social class he belongs to: “The
environmental movement in its current form is dominated by middle-class
professionals.” So, his advice boils down to another version of
Chibber’s—the environmental movement has to create beachheads in the
trade union movement.
Since I don’t blame anybody for not wanting to plow through 10,500 words
of Hubert’s prose, my advice is to watch the podcast above to get a
handle on the sort of politics being purveyed in Bhaskar Sunkara’s
publishing empire.
