degrowth = a political vision for a more just society, is it feasible though? (! lets not forget the hegemony is at the moment)

Degrowth (or sustainable degrowth) is a concept calling for economic localization, lower production & consumption in the name of good living conditions for future generations, thus protecting the envirinment and promoting well-being of all (?) individuals.

Sustainability and reasonable balance as an opposition for ideas and practice of permanent development and growth.

Way to build alternative for capitalism

Degrowth is a new imaginary opposing the utilitarian imperative of growth. It is based on the idea of democratically led and redistributive downscaling of production and consumption in industrial countries and the global middle class as a means to achieve environmental sustainability, social justice and well-being. Gualter

Degrowth is a way how to create a Heaven on Earth but I’m still afraid that people aren’t able to do that.

Degrowth is a better life with less means. A political slogan that will help rethink and reshape our social and material environment.

Degrowth
- challenges the growth and GDP-oriented paradigm
- calls for realization that eternal growth is neither fair nor possible/realistic
- and that is why alternative ways of life, consumption, distribution, production, relation between the human kind and nature have to be developed & implemented

Degrowth is a slogan that will inspire a rethinking and revaluing of the human position and widen the understanding of the effects of human activity to ensure a better life and wellbeing for present and future generations.

Degrowth challenges the hegemony of growth, the meaning of progress and development, the maximisation of economic utility and calls for a democratically led redistributive ............. same for Demaria et al.

Degrowth needs self-governed people on the basis of sociocracy and the principles:
Caring for the earth
Caring for the people
Fair share of surplus

”Nature” is the sole principle on Planet Earth & we need to ”nurture” it!

Set of more or less connected theories with political implications. They mostly react on unsustainability of current society, its economical and ecological relations in a global perspective.

Degrowth appears to be an ill-defined label applied to activities to reduce consumption and production and to oppose some current economical growth models. It seems like another slogan to me.

Is a way of life that tries or does respect what is surrounding us.

Degrowth can be defined as downscaling of unnecessary production and consumption in order to achieve social justice, well being and equality between all beings. It is like a process to remind us who we really are. A part of the wholeness of this planet. Konstantina

Degrowth is a way of thinking where in the centre is not a single individual but society + earth and future + present.

Degrowth means respect to oneselfes and the place called earth.
