Cannibalistic Capitalism: Addressing a System that Undermines Democracy, Devours the Planet, and Jeopardizes Its Own Survival

A Review of Cannibal Capitalism by Nancy Fraser

Abstract

The review presented below begins with the biography of Nancy Fraser, the writer of the reviewed book in question, followed by information about the work in its original language and translation. We continue with the objective of the book and its contents, which include 6 chapters that Fraser describes in her book. Fraser takes rhetorical figures as inspiration, making allusion to cannibalistic capitalism, which Fraser points out in his book as an urhobo that enjoys destroying the foundations on which it exists, by consuming itself.
