Subject: In defence of degrowth - article published at Ecological Economics
To:


Dear colleague,

my article "In defence of degrowth" is published in the latest issue of
Ecological Economics. The article is in response and dialogue with an
article published in the same issue by Jeroen van den Bergh on "a criticism
of degrowth". I send you below the links to the two articles. In case you do
not have access to the journal, I provide at the end of the email a link to
my personal publications webpage where you can access the article.

Best,
Giorgos Kallis

Research Highlights

► Sustainable degrowth is a socially sustainable and equitable reduction of
society’s throughput. ► Ecological sustainability is impossible with further
economic growth. ► Economic degrowth is unstable, the objective is to make
it socially sustainable. ► Core institutions of capitalist economies should
change to enable a smooth descent. ► Degrowth is a radical, but politically
feasible proposal.
