Economic growth isn't working, and it cannot be made to work. Offering a counter-history of economic growth's emergence in the context of colonialism, fossil-fuelled industrialization, and capitalist modernity, The Future is Degrowth shows how the ideology of continual development promotes rising inequalities and ecological destruction, blinding us to more desirable alternatives. The book provides a vision for a postcapitalism beyond growth, charting a path forward through policies that democratize the economy, 'now-topias' creating free spaces for experimentation, and counter-hegemonic movements making it possible to break with the logic of growth.
