Exploring climate change through the interconnections between sociality, theory of money, and a different concept of time? Three Economies of Transcendence offers a sharp critique of how transcendence underpins the symbolic, economic, and environmental crises of the modern world. Andrea Righi identifies three distinct "economies of transcendence" that sustain neoliberal systems of power. Termed the economy of rank, the economy of infinite valorization, and the phallic economy of time, these economies perpetuate hierarchies, sacrifices, and ecological destruction. Through this framework, Righi not only diagnoses the crisis but also proposes an immanent model of economy that fosters solidarity and is expressly pro-social and ecologically responsible.

This thought-provoking book links climate change to Western cultural and symbolic mechanisms, showing that transformative action must address these deep-seated structures. Righi envisions a future rooted in our shared spatio-temporal existence, challenging the atomizing rivalries and endless growth of neoliberalism.
