''This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate'' is Naomi Klein's fourth book; it was published in September 2014 by Simon & Schuster. In it Klein argues that the climate crisis cannot be addressed in the current era of neoliberal market fundamentalism, which encourages profligate consumption and has resulted in mega-mergers and trade agreements hostile to the health of the environment.〔 The book debuted on the ''New York Times'' bestseller list at #5 on October 5, 2014.〔http://www.nytimes.com/best-sellers-books/2014-10-05/hardcover-nonfiction/list.html〕 A documentary based on the book, titled ''This Changes Everything'', was directed by Avi Lewis and produced by Alfonso Cuaron, Danny Glover and Seth MacFarlane.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/tiff-climate-crisis-doc-changes-819777 )〕 ==Reception== The book won the 2014 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction,〔("Naomi Klein wins 2014 Hilary Weston Prize" ). CBC Books, October 14, 2014.〕 and was a shortlisted nominee for the 2015 Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing.〔("Shaughnessy Cohen Prize finalists announced" ). ''The Globe and Mail'', January 27, 2015.〕 In ''The New York Times Book Review'', Rob Nixon wrote that ''This Changes Everything'' was "the most momentous and contentious environmental book since ''Silent Spring''."〔 Rob Nixon (November 6, 2014). (Naomi Klein’s ‘This Changes Everything’ ). ''The New York Times.'' Retrieved December 4, 2014.〕 It was also included on their list of 100 notable books for 2014.〔(100 Notable Books of 2014 ). ''The New York Times,'' December 2, 2014. Retrieved December 7, 2014.〕 In ''Monthly Review'', Professors John Bellamy Foster and Brett Clark praised the book, writing that "Klein, who in ''No Logo'' ushered in a new generational critique of commodity culture, and who in ''The Shock Doctrine'' established herself as perhaps the most prominent North American critic of neoliberal disaster capitalism, signals that she has now, in William Morris’s famous metaphor, crossed “the river of fire” to become a critic of capitalism. The reason is climate change, including the fact that we have waited too long to address it, and the reality that nothing short of an ecological revolution will now do the job." Foster and Clark also provided detailed counter-arguments in response to what they term are the "liberal critics" of the book.〔(Crossing the River of Fire - The Liberal Attack on Naomi Klein and This Changes Everything ), published in ''Monthly Review'', 2015, Volume 66, Number 9 (February)〕 Michael Signer wrote in ''The Daily Beast'': "Klein’s book promises to change everything. But for anyone who believes in capitalism and political leadership, her book won’t change anything at all."〔http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/11/17/naomi-klein-s-this-changes-everything-will-change-nothing.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「This Changes Everything」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
