Communism & Socialism Editorial Review
In the editorial review, "Slow Down: The Degrowth Manifesto," the author, Kohei Saito, presents a radical vision for addressing the climate crisis by advocating for "degrowth communism." The book delves deep into a critique of capitalism, drawing on the late writings of Karl Marx, and proposing a transition to a use-value-based society, shorter work hours, overcoming the division between mental and manual labor, democratizing the production process, and prioritizing essential work. Saito also suggests models for action, such as the "Fearless Cities" movement in Barcelona, as a way to achieve "degrowth communism" through cooperative municipalism. While some readers found the book to be a slog, it has sparked meaningful discussions about climate change and degrowth, prompting some individuals, particularly in Japan, to rethink their lifestyles and attitudes towards the existing economic system.
