DESCRIPTION:Imperiled Life theorizes an exit from the potentially terminal consequences 
 of capital-induced climate change. The work is a collection of reflections 
 on the phenomenon of catastrophe—climatological, political, social—as 
 well as on the possibilities of overcoming disaster.\n\nBy means of an 
 appraisal of the current state of the Earth's climate and of the possible 
 futures that would be impelled by further climate destabilization, the book 
 clearly states that dramatic revolutionary transformation must be had in 
 the near term if humanity and life itself are to have something of a chance 
 to flourish in light of the ongoing climate crisis. It offers the 
 alternative of an “ecological anarcho-communism” at the close of the 
 work.\n\nCombining reportage from the 2010 Cancún climate negotiations 
 with investigations into historical and contemporary anti-systemic thought 
 and praxis, Imperiled Life seeks to promote critical thought and action as 
 means of overturning prevailing trends and thus changing our historical 
 trajectory. \n\nTitle no. 4 in the Anarchist Interventions series (AK 
 Press/Institute for Anarchist Studies)!\n\nThe event on Friday night is 
 planned to consist of a presentation by the author followed by a 
 participatory discussion regarding the issues raised in the work. It will 
 be the first event in Javier's book tour for Imperiled Life--that is to 
 say, the book's launch!\n
