And it cannot be made to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOffering a counter-history of how economic growth emerged in the context of colonialism, fossil-fueled industrialization, and capitalist modernity, \u003ci\u003eThe Future is Degrowth\u003c\/i\u003e argues that the ideology of growth conceals the rising inequalities and ecological destructions associated with capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGrowing evidence shows that continued economic growth is incompatible with sustaining life and is not necessary for a good life for all. Despite this, not only in society at large, but also on the left, we are held captive by the hegemony of growth. Leftists have based their utopian hopes on the development of productive forces, on redistributing the fruits of economic growth and technological progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book argues that any left politics and vision for postcapitalism that doesn't question growth perpetuates global inequalities, climate injustice, and the destruction of life on Earth. Degrowth perspectives offer a way to step off the treadmill of an alienating, expansionist, and hierarchical system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA textbook and a manifesto, \u003ci\u003eThe Future is Degrowth\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-read for all interested in charting a way beyond the current crises.
