Water struggles as resistance to neoliberal capitalism is an important intervention into social reproduction theory and eco-socialist debates. It provides a timely analysis of the role of expropriation in the current global water crisis and makes a persuasive argument for understanding class as an emergent process constituted through struggle. -- .
This book provides an important intervention into social reproduction theory and the politics of water. Presenting an incorporated comparison, it analyses the conjuncture following the 2007 financial crisis through the lens of water expropriation and resistance. This brings into view the way that transnational capital has made use of and been facilitated by the strategic selectivities of both the Irish and the Australian state, as well as the particular class formations that emerged in resistance to such water grabs. What is revealed is a crisis-ridden system that is marked by increasing reproductive unrest – class understood through the lens of social reproduction theory. As an important analysis of two significant water struggles, the book makes a compelling argument for integrating the study of social movements within critical political economy. -- .
