"The left has failed to inspire a practical challenge to the planetary crisis of capitalism that has upended nature and society. This book outlines a new transformative politics that emerges from workers' cooperative systems that promote planetary care from below and have the potential to undermine the capitalist status quo."

“The crisis of capitalism is planetary. It is a system that disrupts nature and society, causing many to live and work in despair. Until now, the left has been unable to pose a practical challenge to it. In ‘Worker Cooperatives and Deep Democracy,’ Vishwas Satgar and Michelle Williams outline a new transformative politics that emerges from inspiring worker cooperative systems that promote planetary care from below and have the potential to undermine the capitalist status quo.”

"Based on extensive research in 15 countries, the authors examine case studies that explore transformative approaches to social reproduction, public power, nature protection, and territorial expansion in opposition to global hegemonic power. They also reveal the power of solidarities to generate emancipatory and utopian imaginaries in the global north and south."

"Satgar and Williams show how, against all odds, people are experimenting with deep democracy and building care systems to live differently and emerge from the planetary crisis."
