"The old ghost has a lot to tell us, so we find out from these imaginative and compelling conversations in Highgate Cemetery. We hear from Marx's companions and his sometime adversaries as well. But especially from the author who guides the conversation, and in lucid and informative prose draws the curtain from many of the ills of the world while also directing us to ways to escape from what might be a grim future.  A very valuable and timely contribution."  -- Noam Chomsky

"What would Karl Marx think about Lady Gaga, Facebook, and the Wall Street-driven economic meltdown?  Derber's gift is to bring Marx alive and engage the worldly philosopher about the great issues of our contemporary age."
-- Chuck Collins, co-author with Bill Gates, Sr., of Wealth and Our Commonwealth

"This is a delightful read, in which we meet Marx the humanist, Marx the supporter of the eight-hour day, Marx before Marxism, as C. Wright Mills used to say. Charles Derber is in that tradition of Mills, one who wants to reclaim the real history of the demonized for a new generation." -- Tom Hayden

"By using a time capsule technique to bring back Karl Marx to the 21st century, Charles Derber engages him in an illuminating taboo-shredding conversation about economies, workers, corporations and governments. Derber opens minds, challenges facile assumptions and liberates conventional inhibitions."
-- Ralph Nader

"Derber proposes practical solutions that are both reformist and  revolutionary in their scope for transforming today's outdated and unfair system of capitalism.  Marx's Ghost is the essential handbook for social and environmental activists everywhere." -- Jonthan Steele, columnist for The Guardian 

"Thought provoking and accessible, Professor Derber has masterfully brought Marx's theories to life and made them relevant for all citizens trying to understand their own social realities. I will be excited to use Marx's Ghost in courses including social theory, introduction to sociology, social inequality, and in courses on the current economic crisis." -- Johnathan White, co-author of The Engaged Sociologist: Connecting the Classroom to the Community

"Holbrook skilfully acts as both impresario and ethical husbander; the former at ease weaving and diving as opportunistic entrepreneur, the latter immersed in a legacy of English socialism. This is an apposite piece of research, offering spatial intelligence as a basis for synthesised thought to unpick the current conundrum of planning and governance."

'Can the world’s cities save Earth’s environment? As international environmentalism becomes ever more sclerotic, growing numbers of cities across the world are proclaiming their sustainability bona fides through programs and projects rooted in what Corina McKendry calls "green urban entrepreneurialism." But are these programs any more than green window dressing, designed to attract trendy, upscale people? Dr McKendry looks closely into three world cities—Chicago, Vancouver and Birmingham, UK—to assess whether Being Green is more than just another cliché and finds that it does mean something. This extraordinary book should be read widely by students, scholars and citizens who want to make a difference within their cities as well as across the world as a whole.'—Ronnie D. Lipschutz, Professor of Politics, University of California, Santa Cruz, USA
'By using comparative methodology, McKendry sets this book apart from most books on cities, which tend to be monographs. With rich, comparative data this book illuminates the similarities and differences of efforts to green cities in a multinational context. Moreover, McKendry produces a highly productive typology of "liberal environmentalisms" that give us a new conceptual tool to understand the contested political project of urban sustainability.'—Nik Janos, Assistant Professor, California State University, Chico, USA
'Greening Post-Industrial Cities advances our understanding of cities in global environmental governance by placing the urban greening and environmental justice literatures into conversation and exploring how "varieties of liberal environmentalism" have played out in different urban contexts. With healthy skepticism and hopeful pragmatism, McKendry helps us imagine cities as sites for creating a more equitable and sustainable future.'—Michele M. Betsill, Department of Political Science, Colorado State University, USA
'Analysts and practitioners alike have long recognized that cities are major actors in, and arenas of, global governance. By their nature they are internally complex, diverse and contested. In order to better understand them, therefore, we need theoretically informed empirical studies that capture city dynamics across time rather than at any one turning point. Corina McKendry’s book contributes profoundly to the study of cities by providing an empirically fine-grained comparison of the greening of three important cities, based on a compelling theoretical scheme that will inform and influence future research on urban politics and global governance.'—Dimitris Stevis, Department of Political Science, Colorado State University, USA

Greening Post-Industrial Cities

Was bedeutet es, nachhaltig zu leben? Welches Erbe wollen wir unseren Nachkommen hinterlassen? Wer diese Fragen beantworten will, muss weit in die Zukunft blicken. Doch was können wir über die Zukunft wissen? Eine Antwort darauf verlangt, in der Nachhaltigkeitsdebatte der Dimension der Zeit größere Aufmerksamkeit als bisher zu widmen. Die Autoren eröffnen einen neuartigen Zugang zu den Phänomenen der Zeit. Zeitliche Entwicklungen werden so begriffen und dargestellt, dass sich daraus Handreichungen für die Praxis ergeben. Grundlage dafür ist eine interdisziplinäre Konzeption, die es ermöglicht, für Nachhaltigkeitsprobleme relevantes Wissen aus Natur- und Sozialwissenschaft in eine Gesamtsicht zu überführen. Das Buch will zu einem freien und unbefangenen Blick auf die jeweiligen Probleme und
