'''Eco-Socialism''' (shortened to '''EcoSoc''') is an [[File:Envi.png]] [[Environmentalism|environmentalist]], [[file:Leftunity.png]] [[:Category:Left_Unity|economically left-wing]] and otherwise varied ideology. He believes that the reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> emissions and socialist-style economics are complementary, as pollution is the result of mainly [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|Capitalist]] commodity production.


It is very close to [[File: Soc.png]] [[Socialism]] economically, but more varied in other ways. It believes that [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] will destroy the planet and that we need to have a revolution. Unlike [[File: Ecofash.png]] [[Eco-Fascism]], it believes all people should be treated equally. But it also believes in extreme environmentalism.

== Foundations and Beliefs ==
==Foundations and Beliefs==


=== '''Economics''' ===
===Economics===
Eco-Socialism believes in the abolition of [[file:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]], in the belief that it puts profits over the environment and the establishment of a socialist economy that is environmentally sensitive and sustainable. It can range anywhere from being [[File:PlannedEconomy.png]] centrally planned to being organized around worker [[File:Cooperative_Socialism.png]] [[Market Socialism|co-ops]].


===Civics===
Eco-Socialism generally believes in the abolition of [[file:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]], in the belief that it puts profits over the environment, and the establishment of a [[file:Partip.png]] [[Participism|participatory]] socialist economy that's environmentally sensitive and sustainable.<ref>Löwy, Micheal (April/30/2020), "Can eco-socialism save the world?", from "Canadian Dimension", at: (https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/ecological-and-social-planning-and-transition)</ref>
Eco-Socialism is, most of the time, found around the [[file:Leftunity.png]] [[:Category:Left_Unity|left centre]] of the political compass; around the center of the civic axis on the left. But this may not always be the case.


Some Eco-Socialists may have more [[file:Authleft.png]] [[:Category:Authoritarian_Left|authoritarian]] views, while others may be more [[file:Libleft.png]] [[:Category:Libertarian_Left|libertarian]] in their politics. Largely depends on who you ask.
Under this system, the people would, through [[file:Directdem.png]] [[Direct Democracy|direct democracy]], administer larger operations, like factories and grocery stores, while smaller operations, like mom and pop shops; family run stores and such, would be left to the direct democratic decision of the people who partake it it's operation.<ref>Löwy, Micheal (April/30/2020), "Can eco-socialism save the world?", from "Canadian Dimension", at: (https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/ecological-and-social-planning-and-transition)</ref>


===Culture===
But along with this, the people would also directly elect [[file:Dem.png]] [[Democracy|representatives]], most likely [[file:Technocracy.png]] experts [[file:Scientocracy_Small.png]], to (and much more)<ref>Löwy, Micheal (April/30/2020), "Can eco-socialism save the world?", from "Canadian Dimension", at: (https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/ecological-and-social-planning-and-transition)</ref>:
Exactly the same as the civics of Eco-Socialism, their cultural values could vary. While most people on the left, including Eco-Socialists, are generally [[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism|progressive]], you could, from time to time, run into people who are more [[file:Conservative.png]] [[Conservatism|conservative]] or [[file:Trad.png]] [[Traditionalism|traditional]].


==Variants==
* Advise the populous on the best decision to take.
===[[File:GreensUS.png]] American Greenism===
* Make decisions in the place of the people, while still being accountable to decisions like recalls.
[[File:GreensUS.png]] American Greenism is an ideology based on the values of the [https://www.gp.org/ Green Party of the United States]. Its ideals are based on the rejection of [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] and [[File:Statesoc.png]] [[State Socialism]], and embracement of [[File:Bckchn.png]] [[Libertarian Municipalism]], [[File:Ecosoc.png]] Ecological Socialism, and Economic [[File:Mutalist.png]] [[Mutualism]], with state companies dominating various sectors in a democratic way and with small private sector companies. Many Greens consider themselves [[File:Libsoc.png]] [[Libertarian Socialism|Libertarian Socialists]], including the 2020 presidential candidate, [[File:Lpop.png]] [[Left-Wing Populism|Howie Hawkins]].
* Make essential decisions, like respond to a major problem at a power plant, and block oppressive decisions.


=== '''Civics''' ===
====Values====
On top of the [https://www.gp.org/the_four_pillars Four Pillars] of green politics which include [[File:Envi.png]] [[Environmentalism|ecological wisdom]], [[File:Socjust.png]] [[Progressivism|social justice]], [[File:Directdem.png]] [[Democracy#Direct Democracy|grassroots democracy]] and [[File:Antiimp.png]] nonviolence, the Green Party also has a set of [https://www.gp.org/ten_key_values Ten Key Values] that expand on the concept which include the following extra: [[File:Confed.png]] [[Confederalism|decentralization]], [[File:Libms.png]] [[Libertarian Market Socialism|community-based economics]], [[File:PostColFem.png]] [[Postcolonial Feminism|feminism and gender equality]], [[File:Multicult.png]] [[Multiculturalism|respect for diversity]], [[File:Ecoglob.png]] [[Alter-Globalism|personal and global responsibility]] and [[File:Ecosoc.png]] future focus on sustainability.


====Domestic Policy====
Eco-Socialism is, most of the time, found around the [[file:Leftunity.png]] [[:Category:Left_Unity|left centre]] of the political compass; around the centre of the civic axis on the left. But this may not always be the case.
They were the first to push for a "[https://www.gp.org/green_new_deal Green New Deal]" (originally created by European Greens), which would be for a transition to 100% green energy along with a carbon tax, in addition to others, including increased jobs, and an [[File:Lpop.png]] [https://howiehawkins.us/the-economic-bill-of-rights/ Economic Bill of Rights]. Services that would be for free include [[File:Univhealth.png]] single-payer healthcare, [[File:UBI.png]] universal basic income, all public (including higher) education, child care, and urban mass transit. Goods and services that would be available at low cost would include public housing, power, broadband, and water.


Other positions would include strong opposition to privatization, canceling student debt, the right to contraceptives and [[File:Abort.png]] {{PCBA|Abortionism|abortions}}, access to medical treatment for [[File:Trans.png]] transgender people and protecting other [[File:Gay.png]] [[:Category:LGBT|LGBTQ+]] rights, protecting [[File:Totlib.png]] [[Total Liberationism|animal rights]], promoting [[File:Secular.png]] secularism and the separation of church and state, reparations to [[File:AfricanAmerican.png]] African Americans, [[File:NarcoCom.png]] legalization of marijuana and ending the "War on Drugs", repeal of three strike laws, end of death penalty, and banning private prisons.
Some Eco-Socialists may have more [[file:Authleft.png]] [[:Category:Authoritarian_Left|authoritarian]] views, while others may be more [[file:Libleft.png]] [[:Category:Libertarian_Left|libertarian]] in their politics. Largely depends on who you ask.
===={{Colorlink|#FFF|Mutualism|Economy}} [[File:Mutualist.png]]====
The eco-socialist economy the Green Party of the United States wants to create is similar to the market socialist [[File:Mutalist.png]] [[Mutualism|mutualist]] economics of Proudhon which consists of a large sector of democratically controlled public enterprises, a large sector of cooperative enterprises, and a smaller sector of small businesses and self-employed. Consumer goods and services would be sold to consumers in the market by cooperatives, public enterprises, and small businesses. The party will also create cooperative banks offering low interest somewhat similar to Proudhon's Mutualist banks.


===={{PCBA|Anti-Imperialism|{{Color|#FFFFFF|Foreign Policy}}}} [[File:Antiimp.png]]====

'''Green social democracy''' also known as center left environmentalism is an ideology that wants strong regulation, powerful unions and Keynesian economics but believes that the environment comes first always and may break with Keynesian economics i.e., infinite growth on a planet with finite resources and side against unions i.e Green SocDems want to close down all the coal mines, something labour unions obviously do not want. They are usually fiercely protectionist, to lower CO2 emissions from transportation but also to protect workers. Though this is not hard and fast.

Latest revision as of 22:13, 1 July 2024

"We can not have equilibrium in this world with the current inequality and destruction of Mother Earth. Capitalism is what is causing this problem and it needs to end."

Eco-Socialism (shortened to EcoSoc) is an environmentalist, economically left-wing and otherwise varied ideology. He believes that the reduction of CO2 emissions and socialist-style economics are complementary, as pollution is the result of mainly Capitalist commodity production.

It is very close to Socialism economically, but more varied in other ways. It believes that Capitalism will destroy the planet and that we need to have a revolution. Unlike Eco-Fascism, it believes all people should be treated equally. But it also believes in extreme environmentalism.

Foundations and Beliefs

Economics

Eco-Socialism believes in the abolition of Capitalism, in the belief that it puts profits over the environment and the establishment of a socialist economy that is environmentally sensitive and sustainable. It can range anywhere from being centrally planned to being organized around worker co-ops.

Civics

Eco-Socialism is, most of the time, found around the left centre of the political compass; around the center of the civic axis on the left. But this may not always be the case.

Some Eco-Socialists may have more authoritarian views, while others may be more libertarian in their politics. Largely depends on who you ask.

Culture

Exactly the same as the civics of Eco-Socialism, their cultural values could vary. While most people on the left, including Eco-Socialists, are generally progressive, you could, from time to time, run into people who are more conservative or traditional.

Variants

American Greenism

American Greenism is an ideology based on the values of the Green Party of the United States. Its ideals are based on the rejection of Capitalism and State Socialism, and embracement of Libertarian Municipalism, Ecological Socialism, and Economic Mutualism, with state companies dominating various sectors in a democratic way and with small private sector companies. Many Greens consider themselves Libertarian Socialists, including the 2020 presidential candidate, Howie Hawkins.

Values

On top of the Four Pillars of green politics which include ecological wisdom, social justice, grassroots democracy and nonviolence, the Green Party also has a set of Ten Key Values that expand on the concept which include the following extra: decentralization, community-based economics, feminism and gender equality, respect for diversity, personal and global responsibility and future focus on sustainability.

Domestic Policy

They were the first to push for a "Green New Deal" (originally created by European Greens), which would be for a transition to 100% green energy along with a carbon tax, in addition to others, including increased jobs, and an Economic Bill of Rights. Services that would be for free include single-payer healthcare, universal basic income, all public (including higher) education, child care, and urban mass transit. Goods and services that would be available at low cost would include public housing, power, broadband, and water.

Other positions would include strong opposition to privatization, canceling student debt, the right to contraceptives and abortions, access to medical treatment for transgender people and protecting other LGBTQ+ rights, protecting animal rights, promoting secularism and the separation of church and state, reparations to African Americans, legalization of marijuana and ending the "War on Drugs", repeal of three strike laws, end of death penalty, and banning private prisons.

Economy

The eco-socialist economy the Green Party of the United States wants to create is similar to the market socialist mutualist economics of Proudhon which consists of a large sector of democratically controlled public enterprises, a large sector of cooperative enterprises, and a smaller sector of small businesses and self-employed. Consumer goods and services would be sold to consumers in the market by cooperatives, public enterprises, and small businesses. The party will also create cooperative banks offering low interest somewhat similar to Proudhon's Mutualist banks.

Foreign Policy

The Green Party adapts Pacifism and Alter-Globalism. The Green Party supports a ban on arms sales to foreign countries, banning nuclear testing, cutting the military budget in half, cutting foreign aid to countries with poor LGBTQ+ rights records, support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, signing the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, the Iran nuclear deal, and the Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Power Distribution

Green ideology emphasizes participatory democracy and the principle of "thinking globally, acting locally." As such, the ideal Green Party is thought to grow from the bottom up, from neighborhood to municipal to (eco-)regional to national levels as inspired by Libertarian Municipalism. The goal is to rule by a consensus decision making process as practiced in Democratic Confederalism.

Green Social Democracy

Green social democracy also known as center left environmentalism is an ideology that wants strong regulation, powerful unions and Keynesian economics but believes that the environment comes first always and may break with Keynesian economics i.e., infinite growth on a planet with finite resources and side against unions i.e Green SocDems want to close down all the coal mines, something labour unions obviously do not want. They are usually fiercely protectionist, to lower CO2 emissions from transportation but also to protect workers. Though this is not hard and fast.
