Abstract:
This article explores the degrowth movement’s main ideas, policy proposals, and examples of noncapitalist organizations and socially embedded economic networks compatible with degrowth ideas, namely, the Catalan Integral Cooperatives in Spain and Solidarity Economy Networks in Italy. It also explores degrowth’s relevance to developing countries that have lower levels of material living standards compared to the European countries where it originated. The main argument of this article is that degrowth has significant potential to advance progressive socioecological transformation. Its advocates have also implemented some interesting alternative economic practices, such as nonmonetary exchanges and recreations of the commons, which prioritize socioecological sustainability over profit maximization. However, the degrowth movement has so far paid little attention to the structural hierarchy of the global political economy and hence has not made sufficient suggestions about how to address uneven development within and between countries, which will likely hinder progressive and ecologically sustainable transitions across the globe. Unfair global trade practices and concentrated control over advanced technologies are contentious points that might prevent widespread support for degrowth ideas in developing countries. Some developing countries and subnational local groups also face more constraints than others if they want to scale-up noncapitalist initiatives that are compatible with the degrowth vision, not to mention that some might lack financial means to drive transformative change. These issues cut across the spheres of production, consumption, trade, and finance, which suggests that structural reforms of the global political economy are called for to address unequal relations between developed and developing countries and also inequality within countries.

Abstract:
The recent social encyclical Laudato Si’ (2015) by Pope Francis, contains insightful considerations regarding the present ecological and economic crisis and it calls for an urgent and radical change in people’s lifestyles. Degrowth is an emergent social, political, and economic movement that praises the end of a growth-based society. Somehow, it seems that the ideas of degrowth have been not enough seriously considered by political and economic circles, and by religiously inspired social doctrines. This paper argues that the two, Francis’ text and degrowth’s principles, share some relevant points and they can be allied in prospecting and making effective a paradigmatic change in today’s socio-economic setting. After presenting degrowth’s main ideas, Francis’ text will be analyzed, for then summarizing the results of the analyses in the concluding part.

Abstract:
AbstractDegrowth scholarship argues for multi-scalar transformations beyond the growth-oriented economic paradigm to achieve long-term socio-ecological sustainability. While the literature on degrowth has grown substantially, little has been said about how these transformations are understood in practice. By drawing upon practice theory and using performative methods, this paper explores the ways in which degrowth scholars and practitioners experience and understand degrowth. It provides a preliminary account of living degrowth by portraying a diverse range of interrelated practices grouped in five spheres: (1) rethinking society, (2) acting political, (3) creating alternatives, (4) fostering connections, and (5) unveiling the self. Drawing upon the spheres of practices, we conceptualize living degrowth as an endeavour that aims to transform current problems into imagined futures in multiple realms. The practices of living degrowth are concerned with theoretical, political, material, economical, social and personal dimensions of world and life. This points to the importance for sustainability science to investigate and foster transformations in all domains and at all levels, reaching from the outer to the inner and vice versa.

Abstract:
Scholars and activists mobilize increasingly the term degrowth when producing knowledge critical of the ideology and costs of growth-based development. Degrowth signals a radical political and economic reorganization leading to reduced resource and energy use. The degrowth hypothesis posits that such a trajectory of social transformation is necessary, desirable, and possible; the conditions of its realization require additional study. Research on degrowth has reinvigorated the limits to growth debate with critical examination of the historical, cultural, social, and political forces that have made economic growth a dominant objective. Here we review studies of economic stability in the absence of growth and of societies that have managed well without growth. We reflect on forms of technology and democracy com-patible with degrowth and discuss plausible openings for a degrowth transition. This dynamic and productive research agenda asks inconvenient questions that sustainability sciences can no longer afford to ignore.

Abstract:
Endless economic growth on a finite planet is impossible. This is the premise behind the degrowth movement. Despite this sound rationale, the degrowth movement has struggled to gain political acceptability. We have sought to understand this limited uptake of degrowth discourse in the English-speaking world by interviewing Canadian activists. Activists have a proximity to the political realm – both with its barriers and openings – that scholars working primarily in academic institutions sometimes lack. Our interviews reveal that class interests – particularly those of fossil fuel companies – are a substantial barrier to realizing degrowth goals. Interviewees highlighted the importance of centring class-conscious environmentalism, ‘anti-purity’ politics, and decolonization as essential parts of a degrowth agenda capable of overcoming these class interests. We conclude by unpacking how the Green New Deal – a discourse and movement that gained considerable traction after we completed our interviews – addresses the obstacles shared by our interviewees, thus making it a promising ‘non-reformist reform’ for the degrowth movement to pursue.

Abstract:
The article addresses the problem of degrowth, approached as a socio-economic process reducing human pressure on the environment (the detoxification of nature) by setting alternative economic goals and recognising other boundaries (ecological and social) in the socio-economic development. Its main purpose is to systematise knowledge about degrowth and attempt to answer the question whether the concept of degrowth has a chance of becoming a new real paradigm of socio-economic development in the 21st century. A critical analysis of the source literature covering the problem of socio-economic development paradigm and the concept of degrowth was the starting point of the research. The empirical study relating to the problem of shortening food supply chains in Poland serves as an example illustrating the practical implication of degrowth. The conducted analysis showed that the concept of degrowth may become a new paradigm of socio-economic development in the 21st century. It requires, however, further changes in the institutional system as a controlled process of changes.

Abstract:
How can an idea that critiques the global capitalist system persist? How can a concept that opposes growth as indicator of wealth gather more and more supporters inside and outside of academia? How can a radical theory that challenges almost any societal structure convince us that it is something we must pursue? The Degrowth movement is often referred to as utopia, and not without good reason, as it is a relatively new concept that certainly still has its flaws. This thesis aims to start the Degrowth dialogue outside the ivory tower of academia. We use qualitative data gained from five focus groups to determine which components of Degrowth need the most clarification to make a movement evolve into a genuine theory. Our findings, brought forward by engaged discussions during the focus groups, showed potential for improvements of the Degrowth theory in the areas of education, societal norms and values as well as governmental policies and regulations. These insights allowed us to more specifically address the ambiguities of degrowth and counter them with opinions from experts to make Degrowth more accessible.

Abstract:
Qu'est-ce que la décroissance et quelles sont ses implications pour l'économie politique ? Divisée en trois parties, cette thèse explore le pourquoi, le quoi, et le comment de la décroissance.La première partie (De la croissance et des limites) étudie la nature, les causes, et les conséquences de la croissance économique. Chapitre 1 : Comprendre la croissance économique répond à plusieurs questions : Qu'est-ce qui croît exactement ? À quelle vitesse ? Quand et où est-ce que ça croît ? Comment est-ce que ça croît ? Et pourquoi est-ce que ça devrait croître ? Les trois chapitres suivants développent une triple objection à la croissance économique qui n'est plus possible (Chapitre 2 : Limites biophysiques de la croissance), plausible (Chapitre 3 : Limites socioéconomiques de la croissance), et souhaitable (Chapitre 4 : Limites sociales à la croissance).La deuxième partie (Éléments de décroissance) porte sur l'idée de la décroissance, en particulier son histoire, ses fondements théoriques, et ses controverses. Le Chapitre 5 : Origines et définitions retrace l'histoire du concept de 1968 à 2018. Le Chapitre 6 : Fondements théoriques présente une théorie normative de la décroissance comme déséconomisation, c'est-à-dire une réduction de l'importance de la rationalité et des pratiques économiques. Le Chapitre 7 : Controverses passe en revue les attaques reçues par le concept. Si la première partie a diagnostiqué la croissance économique comme étant le problème, cette partie propose une solution. L’argument principal est que la décroissance n'est pas seulement une critique mais aussi une alternative complète à la société de croissance.La troisième partie (Recettes de décroissance) concerne la transition d'une économie de croissance à une société de décroissance. La partie s'ouvre sur un inventaire des politiques mobilisées par les décroissants jusqu'à aujourd'hui (Chapitre 8 : Stratégies de changement). Les trois chapitres suivants, sur la propriété (Chapitre 9 : Transformer la propriété), le travail (Chapitre 10 : Transformer le travail) et l'argent (Chapitre 11 : Transformer l'argent) passent de la théorie à la pratique et transforment les valeurs et les principes de la décroissance en stratégies de transition. Le Chapitre 12 : Stratégie de transition décrit une méthode pour étudier l'interaction entre plusieurs politiques de décroissance, et cela pour mieux planifier la transition. Le message central de cette troisième partie est que la décroissance est un outil conceptuel puissant pour réfléchir à une transition vers la justice sociale et écologique
What is degrowth and what are its implications for political economy? Divided in three parts, this dissertation explores the why, what, and how of degrowth. The first part (Of growth and limits) studies the nature, causes, and consequences of economic growth. Chapter 1: Understanding economic growth answers a series of questions about the nature of economic growth: What is it exactly that grows? By how much does it grow? When and where does it grow? How does it grow? And why should it grow? The three following chapters develop a triple objection to economic growth as no longer possible (Chapter 2: Biophysical limits to growth), plausible (Chapter 3: Socioeconomic limits to growth), and desirable (Chapter 4: Social limits of growth). The second part (Elements of degrowth) is about the idea of degrowth, especially its history, theoretical foundations, and controversies. Chapter 5: Origins and definitions traces the history of the concept from 1968 to 2018. Chapter 6: Theoretical foundations presents a normative theory of degrowth as de-economisation, that is a reduction in importance of economic thoughts and practices. Chapter 7: Controversies reviews the attacks the concept has received. Whereas the first part diagnosed economic growth as the problem, this part offers a solution. The take-home message is that degrowth is not only a critique but also a fully-fledged alternative to the growth society. The third part (Recipes for degrowth) is about the transition from a growth economy to a degrowth society. It opens with an inventory of the policies that have been mobilised by degrowthers until today (Chapter 8: Strategies for change). The three following chapters on property (Chapter 9: Transforming property), work (Chapter 10: Transforming work), and money (Chapter 11: Transforming money) go from theory to practice and translate the values and principles of degrowth into operational transition strategies. Chapter 12: Transition strategy presents a method to study the interactions between degrowth policies in order to craft effective transition strategies. The central claim of this final part is that degrowth is a powerful conceptual tool to think about societal transformations for social-ecological justice

Abstract:
The present work engages with the task of reinventing markets for degrowth by extending the work on heterotopia to the study of market practices. The literature review reveals that, as social and ecological constraints to economic growth have become increasingly apparent, emergent views on sustainability are calling for a transition towards degrowth rather than green growth. It is acknowledged that, whilst a transition to degrowth does not necessarily have to involve an abandonment of markets, the architecture of existing marketing systems has been shaped by two centuries of unprecedented economic growth. Therefore, if markets are to operate beyond the growth paradigm, it is argued that notions of the market will have to be radically reinvented. In this regard, scholars have argued alternative currencies as market devices that can be deployed with the aim of achieving a range of degrowth objectives, principally the creation of social capital, localization of economies, valuing non-productive labour, and enabling collaborative consumption to reduce environmental impacts of current life-styles. Given these arguments, alternative currency schemes have emerged as a suitable area of inquiry to explore the practices through which degrowth communities build sustainable systems of provisioning that retain a market form. An alternative currency scheme known as Puma, which is implemented in an area of Seville known as El Pumarejo, has been identified as a suitable empirical case to investigate these processes. The Puma is a type of alternative currency scheme known as Local Exchange Trading System (popularly known as LETS), which is implemented by a degrowth community of more than seven hundred members. Given that the emphasis was on markets as performances, which are enacted in webs of sociomaterial practices, this research was undertaken through an ethnographic strategy. Fieldwork was undertaken over a period of six weeks, which was followed by four revisits of approximately one-week duration each. Data was collected through a range of ethnographic techniques; including participant observation, ethnographic interviews, focus groups, research dairies and field notes, as well as organisational documents and archives. Research findings are presented in an ethnographic narrative, which has been articulated around a thematic analysis produced through a process of hermeneutic interpretation. Research findings highlight that the Puma currency scheme is embedded in concrete place dynamics, community ties and practical concerns, which are specific to the context of El Pumarejo. Moreover, this work identifies market practices and material devices through which a heterotopian market is enacted. For example, a detailed discussion is provided regarding exchange and bartering practices through which exchanges are accomplished between members. Furthermore, this research discusses various material devices employed in such practices, such as the Puma passbook or the CES software, which highlights the centrality of nonhuman elements in the enactment of heterotopian markets. Nevertheless, opening up the heterotopian market blackbox required an examination of infrastructural work through which members sustain the alternative currency scheme. In this regard, this work identifies a number of market-making practices beyond those of market exchange, namely epistemic practices, communication practices, community care practices, and enrolment practices, as well as other practices involved in the organisation of events such as Mercapuma and the Central de Abastecimiento. Ultimately, the symbolic dimension of the Puma currency scheme was examined. In this regard, members appear to be actively involved in the coproduction of meanings and identities which subvert prevalent notions of private and public property, gender, citizenship and consumerism, wealth and debt. Conclusions and implications of these findings for degrowth and marketing are discussed.

In un contesto di crisi le azioni dei vari governi sono caratterizzate da politiche per stimolare la crescita economica. Il termine crescita é sempre stato inteso con un accezione positiva: esso viene infatti spesso associato al benessere economico e sociale ed é considerato il principale metro di valutazione delle performance di una nazione. L'obiettivo dell'elaborato é di introdurre i concetti principali dell'economia della decrescita, una scuola di pensiero che considera la crescita il responsabile della crisi e non la soluzione e che denuncia l'eccessivo sfruttamento delle risorse naturali. Lo slogan "decrscita" comprende differenti ambiti del sociale, per questo é considerata una rivoluzione. La seconda parte della tesi é dedicata all'elaborazione di un modello di decentramento economico, politico e sociale che possa realizzare il disegno della decrescita.

Abstract:
The United Nations member states adopted and signed the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, establishing a framework for global discussion on sustainable development. The inclusion of 'Economic Growth' in these goals begs the question of what constitutes sustainable economic growth in the eyes of the UN. This insight, in conjunction with the ongoing debate about the growth paradigm, growthism, and the limits to growth, is, to put it mildly, fascinating and worth examining. Numerous studies conducted on this issue reveal that conventional economic growth is unsustainable and that alternative strategies must be used to bring about a paradigm shift. The purpose of this research is to determine whether traits of a competing discourse known as 'Degrowth' may be detected in the United Nations' discourse of sustainable economic growth. Whilst sustainable development has been a prominent topic for decades, Degrowth can be perceived as a more recent, less mainstream, and even radical discourse. The discourse emphasizes the limits to growth and advocates for democratically-led shrinking in production and consumption with the goal of achieving equality, justice and ecological sustainability. In order to accomplish the research project’s objective, the discourse and key characteristics of Degrowth are explored.  The study was conducted as a qualitative case study (design) using document analysis as the method. The analysis was guided by the theoretical lens combining Dryzek’s discourse analysis approach and Cosme et al.’s framework. By examining solely documents produced by the UN itself, this analysis concluded that while there are some parallels between the UN’s discourse of sustainable economic growth and Degrowth, there is a distinct difference between the two. The SDGs represent the traditional understanding of sustainable development, a discourse in which it is believed that economic growth can and will be decoupled from ecological degradation and that growth, in fact, is the key to poverty eradication, whereas Degrowth represents a school of thought in which the capitalistic system is viewed as the culprit to a majority of issues at hand and that decoupling economic growth from environmental degradation has been declared as debunked.

Abstract:
The project is an attempt to explore the concept of degrowth and its implications on the municipality of Södertälje, Sweden. Degrowth is brought as a critique of the dominant ideology of taken-for-granted economic growth and its inherent over-exploitation of resources. It is advanced as the new agenda for a different society and seeks to reduce its metabolism. A voluntary degrowth starts at the political level with a series of policies and regulations that eventually lead to a radical transformation of the urban fabric, structures, programmes and lifestyles. Therefore the project aims at visualising the transition from a growth-based society to one that favours environmental and social well-being over economic growth. Food production is brought in as the first agent of change, but other types of production come in thereafter. Three preferred areas have been chosen to illustrate the changes: an improved waterfront catalyzed by a food hub, a reconfigured city centre and a motor-oriented industrial area metamorphosed into a complex mix of housing and productive spaces.

Mestrado em Desenvolvimento e Cooperação Internacional
A última crise económica e financeira (2007) demonstrou aos países descritos como desenvolvidos a impossibilidade ambiental, social e económica de se continuar a perseguir um modelo de desenvolvimento assente no crescimento infinito. Sob a ideia de que também o Norte pode sofrer com as suas mantras de um progresso material contínuo, a presente dissertação analisa de que forma cooperativas decrescentistas se constituem como alternativa ao modelo de desenvolvimento convencional, através de um estudo de caso da Cooperativa Integral Minga, uma cooperativa multissetorial situada em Montemor-o-Novo. Seguindo a crítica do Pós-Desenvolvimento e, consequentemente, do Decrescimento, objetiva-se perceber como esta experiência funciona em Portugal a partir de ferramentas de apropriação como o restabelecimento da democracia, a relocalização económica e a mudança voluntária de comportamentos e valores. Para tal, seguiu-se uma análise do tipo qualitativa, com recurso a entrevistas semi-estruturadas, a observação não participante e a dados secundários e documentais.
The last economic and financial crisis (2007) demonstrated to the so-called developed countries the environmental, social and economic impossibility of continuing to pursue a development model based on infinite growth. Under the idea that the North too can suffer from its own mantras of continuous material progress, the present dissertation analyses how degrowth cooperatives are an alternative to the conventional development paradigm, through a case study of the Cooperativa Integral Minga, a Portuguese multisectoral cooperative located in Montemoro-Novo. Following the critique of Post-Development and, consequently, of the Degrowth theory, the aim is to understand how this experience works in Portugal from appropriation tools such as the restoration of democracy, economic relocation and the voluntary change of behaviours and values. This will be done through a qualitative analysis using semi-structured interviews, nonparticipant observation and secondary and documentary data.

Abstract:
For future generations to meet their needs, and to close the global inequality gap, we need to degrow. That is we need to reduce resource and energy consumption to bring the economy back into balance with the living world in a way that reduces inequality and improves human well-being (Hickel, 2020a,b). This transition has consequences for business, because instead of boosting sales companies need to encourage consumers to make do with less, avoiding build in obsolescence, extending product lives to slow disposal and replacement, focusing on satisfying ‘needs’ rather than ‘wants’ and reducing overall resource consumption through conscious changes in sales and marketing techniques, new revenue models and innovative technology solutions (Bocken & Short, 2016). Overall, we can say that companies have to rethink their business models, therefore I specifically aim to answer the following research question: what could a degrowth business model framework look like? Degrowth business models (DGMs) are supposed to serve the dual aim of (1) obeying planetary boundaries whilst simultaneously (2) contributing to reducing inequality and increasing well-being. That is companies need to develop value propositions that, on the one hand contribute to absolutely reducing resource and energy consumption, and on the other are aimed at production of protected needs (Di Giulio & Defila, 2021). Since degrowth is considered an authentic and legitimate interpretation of sustainable development, SDGs 12-16 can serve as proxies for obeying planetary boundaries, whilst the remaining SDGs (minus SDG8.1 -economic growth) can be regarded as proxies for well-being and reducing inequality.

Abstract:
SHORT PAPER. Degrowth is increasingly gaining attention as an alternative model to the unfolding eco-social crisis generated by industrial capitalism, though questions concerning digital technologies have yet to be addressed in degrowth research. Among the movement of the (digital) commons, whose practices complement degrowth theory, one of the research areas is the viability of such systems to release spaces from capitalism. As (digital) commons spaces frequently revert to capitalist logic, we introduce the "technological dramas" model to encompass the reciprocal and recursive technological production of political power by agonistic entities. We suggest that such a techno-political perspective could contribute to better frame degrowth-related HCI research.

Abstract:
This paper challenges architects to consider a political economy that allows for social and ecological sustainability in the practice of architecture. At a time that bears witness to scores of radical proposals for re-shaping the field, we have the opportunity to reconsider the foundations of the field, and to pinpoint systemic injustices in which the building industries are complicit. In engaging a conversation about alternatives to a market-driven design field, this paper opens up a conversation about the ethics of sustainable design as it’s been practiced under the prevailing growth-driven economic model, in comparison with how it might fortify the longevity of a community under an alternative framework. The paper will point to examples of existing practices that apply principles of degrowth in furthering sustainable build- ing and living practices in the context of their community. Using the framework of degrowth, this paper expands the notion of sustainable design to include the social dimension (ie, whether a project sustains a community or displaces it); provides an analysis of “green growth” and “green-washing,” and equips architects with an understanding of ecology that considers the biosphere and the community where the proj- ect is sited as being inextricable from one another.

Abstract:
Resumen Este documento ha efectuado una revisión de literatura para esclarecer si la salvaguarda del medioambiente requiere actualmente la adopción de políticas de decrecimiento. Tras exponer las visiones de las economías neoclásica y ecológica sobre la relación entre crecimiento económico y sostenibilidad medioambiental y la propuesta de conciliar ambos fenómenos mediante un desarrollo sostenible, se analiza la posibilidad de que el desacople posibilite tal conciliación, desde una perspectiva teórica y empírica. A continuación, se exponen y debaten los tres grandes posicionamientos existentes en la literatura sobre el crecimiento económico: los partidarios del crecimiento, los partidarios del decrecimiento y los agnósticos ante el mismo; y se presentan las políticas que desde esas posiciones se propugnan, bien orientadas a la eficiencia y soluciones técnicas o bien a la suficiencia y cambios en los niveles y patrones de producción y consumo. Finalmente, se apuntan una serie de gaps de la literatura, que convendría corregir para realmente hacer operativas y eficaces las políticas que se proponen. Abstract This paper has carried out a literature review to answer the question of whether safeguarding the environment currently requires the adoption of degrowth policies. After presenting the neoclassical and ecological economic views on the relationship between economic growth and environmental sustainability and the proposal to reconcile both phenomena through sustainable development, the possibility of the decoupling that could make such a reconciliation possible is analysed from both a theoretical and empirical perspective. Next, the three main positions in the literature on economic growth are presented and debated: those in favour of growth, those in favour of degrowth and those agnostic towards it; and the policies advocated from these positions, whether oriented towards efficiency and technical solutions or towards sufficiency and changes in the levels and patterns of production and consumption. Finally, a series of existing gaps in the literature are pointed out, which should be corrected in order to make the policies proposed operational and effective. Laburpena Dokumentu honek literaturaren berrikuspena egin du, gaur egun ingurumena babesteko desazkundeko politikak hartu behar ote diren galderari erantzuteko. Horretarako, lehen-lehenik ekonomia neoklasiko eta ekologikoek hazkunde ekonomikoaren eta ingurumen-iraunkortasunaren arteko erlazioaz duten ikuspegiak azaltzen dira. Ondoren hazkunde ekonomikoa eta ingurumenaren zaintza uztartzen dituen garapen iraunkorra ahalbidetuko lukeen deslotzeko aukera aztertzen da, bai teorikoki eta bai enpirikoki. Jarraian, hazkunde ekonomikoari buruzko literaturan dauden hiru jarrera nagusiak aurkeztu eta eztabaidatzen dira: hazkundearen aldekoak, desazkundearen aldekoak eta hazkundearekiko agnostikoak; eta jarrera horietatik defendatzen diren politikak aurkezten dira, bai eraginkortasunera eta irtenbide teknikoetara bideratuak, bai nahikotasunera eta produkzio eta kontsumo maila eta ereduen aldaketetara zuzenduak. Azkenik, literaturan dauden hutsune batzuk azpimarratzen dira, politikak operatiboak eta eraginkorrak izan daitezen zuzendu beharko liratekeenak.
