In ecosocialist issues, beyond being carbon-based life-forms, we need to consider how the market for carbon offsets is materially not identical to carbon markets. The larger issue of value-form and rents has within it a problem of connecting socially necessary labor-power.

We would caution that there are many ways of valuing a company and, like the DCF, each technique has advantages and disadvantages in certain scenarios. For those who are keen learners of…
India’s obsession with gold is more than just cultural — it’s economic power cloaked in tradition. From heirloom jewellery to emergency savings, families across the country hold nearly 25,000 tonnes of gold, making Indian households the largest private owners of gold in the world. This treasure trove isn’t just ornamental — it’s a strategic shield, offering financial security and a sense of empowerment, particularly for women. And as gold prices soar, that legacy is rapidly compounding into real wealth. Underscoring this national affinity for gold, a SEBI-registered research analyst recently highlighted an eye-opening figure: “Indian households probably seen a…
