At the heart of our intellectual journey in this book lies the profound realiza-tion that in order to redefine capital, we must first engage in a transforma-tive discourse that places (redefining) value at its very core. In the face of an imminent convergence of ecological and social crises, it becomes increas-ingly evident that the immense influence wielded by capital is at the core of these threatening upheavals, jeopardizing the future stability and well-being of (extra-)humanity. To navigate the treacherous waters of the present crises, we must acknowledge that the redefinition of capital necessitates a profound reassessment of its very foundation. Value, as the driving force behind capital, holds the key to unlocking new possibilities and transforming our understand-ing of economic and social systems. By critically examining the concept of value in a capitalist social formation, we gain insight into the processes and mechanisms by which capital exerts its power and influence. By gaining this insight, we can identify the limitations and negative consequences of the cur-rent model and seek alternative approaches that prioritize (extra) human well-living and genuine ecological sustainability. The re-evaluation of value is a crucial step in challenging the dominant capitalist paradigm and envisioning alternative models of social and economic organization.To begin our argument: if we accept the proposition that any quality nec-essary or advantageous for the survival and self-fulfillment of organized life (human and non-human) is of undeniable ‘value’ and if we consider capital-ism as a socio-ecological formation under which all the ultimate sources of this ‘true value’ are now at stake, it would then become imperative to retheo-rize ‘value’ and its ultimate sources, not only to reflect this dire reality but also to manifest the potential for real human liberation.
