John Bellamy Foster is an American professor of sociology at the University of Oregon and editor of the Monthly Review. He writes about the political economy of capitalism and economic crisis, ecology and ecological crisis, and Marxist theory. We discuss the centrality of the metabolic rift theory and the dialectic of nature as well as Marx’s role in the development of system theory. We end by discussing the framework controversies in eco-socialism.
