The relentless pursuit of economic growth is the defining characteristic of contemporary societies. Yet it benefits few and demands monstrous social and ecological sacrifice. Is there a viable alternative? How can we halt the endless quest to grow global production and consumption and instead secure socio-ecological conditions that support lives worth living for all? In this compelling book, leading experts Giorgos Kallis, Susan Paulson, Giacomo D’Alisa and Federico Demaria make the case for degrowth - living well with less, by living differently, prioritizing wellbeing, equity and sustainability. Drawing on emerging initiatives and enduring traditions around the world, they advance a radical degrowth vision and outline policies to shape work and care, income and investment that avoid exploitative and unsustainable practices. Degrowth, they argue, can be achieved through transformative strategies that allow societies to slow down by design, not disaster. Essential reading for all concerned citizens, policy-makers, and students, this book will be an important contribution to one of the thorniest and most pressing debates of our era.

El decrecimiento se resiste a una definición simple. Como la libertad o la justicia, el decrecimiento expresa una aspiración que no puede ser encerrada en una frase. El decrecimiento es un marco en el que coinciden diferentes líneas de pensamiento, imaginarios o propuestas para actuar. Esta versatilidad es una de sus principales fortalezas.El decrecimiento es un rechazo al espejismo del crecimiento y un llamamiento a favor de una repolitización del debate público, hoy colonizado por el lenguaje economicista. Decrecimiento es la hipotesis de que podamos "vivir bien con menos y en común".Personas muy diferentes llegan a él desde diversos ángulos. Algunos, porque constatan que hay límites al crecimiento. Otros, porque consideran que estamos entrando en un período de estancamiento económico y que deberíamos hallar vías para mantener la prosperidad sin crecimiento. Otros más, porque creen que una sociedad verdaderamente igualitaria solo puede ser aquella que se libere del capitalismo y su búsqueda insaciable de expansión. Y otros, finalmente, porque el término "decrecimiento" les resulta muy coherente con el modo de vida que han elegido.Las contribuciones a este libro provienen de diversas escuelas de pensamiento, de diferentes disciplinas y de variadas esferas de vida: economistas ecológicos, antiutilitaristas, (neo)marxistas, ecologistas políticos, cooperativistas, "nowtopistas" y diversos activistas y practicantes.Estamos ante una red de ideas y conversaciones en forma de vocabulario, el desarrollo de un conjunto de conceptos que construyen el andamiaje imprescindible para responder a un cambio de paradigma civilizatorio. El resultado es el compendio más exhaustivo sobre el decrecimiento hasta ahora publicado en castellano, útil como referencia internacional. Decrecimiento ha sido publicado en inglés y catalán y próximamente en francés, alemán, portugués, holandés, croata e italiano.
