Timothy Mitchell presents The Alibi of Capital

Today, extraordinary wealth seems to arrive from nowhere. The trick of conjuring this unearned wealth is, in fact, the key to understanding capitalism’s origins and a clue to why the catastrophe of climate collapse is upon us: value is created by consuming the future.
In The Alibi of Capital, the acclaimed author of Carbon Democracy examines capitalism's method of stealing the future and concealing the theft.
