URGENT CONCERNS - SETH KLEIN
In A Good War, the author explores how we can align our poli
tics and economy with what the science says we must do to ad
dress the climate crisis. But Klein brings an original and unique
ly hopeful take to this challenge. The book is structured around
lessons from the Second World War the last time Canada
faced an existential threat. Others have said we need a war
time approach to climate change, but this is the first book to
delve into what that could actually look like. Canadas wartime
experience, Klein contends, provides an inspirational reminder
that we have mobilized before, in common cause across class,
race and gender, and entirely retooled our economy in the
space of a few short years.
SETH KLEIN was the founding BC director of the Canadian Cen
tre for Policy Alternatives and has been immersed in climate
change and inequality issues since. He has been a social activist
for over 35 years, since his high school days in the peace move
ment. He is currently an adjunct professor in urban studies at
Simon Fraser University and remains a research associate with
the CCPA.
