Abstract

This article aims to examine the possibilities for a Marxist analysis of the current global ecological crisis. To this end, the work will use the theoretical framework developed by different authors of the “eco-socialist” current of the Marxist tradition, as well as the set of works produced by the Hungarian Marxist philosopher István Mészaros. In such a way, the intention is to understand the characteristics of the sociometabolic regime of capital, relating it with the conditions that originate the ecological situation that is witnessed.
