Joel Kovel Bücher
27. August 1936 – 30. April 2018
Joel Kovel war ein herausragender Professor für Sozialwissenschaften, dessen Werk sich tiefgehend mit radikaler Ökologie und Kapitalismuskritik befasste. Seine Schriften erforschten die komplexen Beziehungen zwischen Natur und gesellschaftlichen Systemen, boten provokante Einblicke in Umweltkrisen und schlugen alternative Wege in eine nachhaltige Zukunft vor. Durch seine wissenschaftliche Arbeit strebte Kovel danach, ein tiefgreifendes Verständnis ökologischer Probleme zu fördern und einen transformativen sozialen Wandel anzuregen.

We live in and from nature, but the way we are doing this is about to destroy us. We are beginning to realise the depth of the crisis and the kind of transformation which will have to occur to ensure our survival. This book argues against claims that we can achieve a better environment through the Western 'way of being'.
The book presents a critical analysis of Israel's human rights record, asserting that state-sponsored racism against Arabs parallels apartheid South Africa. Kovel advocates for a one-state solution as the path to peace, emphasizing the incompatibility of Zionism with democratic ideals. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of the Middle East, he explores the emotional and psychological dimensions of Zionism, linking ideology, culture, and politics. Kovel ultimately argues that a two-state solution is futile, as it empowers regressive nationalism, perpetuating conflict.
