A comparative assessment of the efficacy of rural depopulation policies in Spain
Depopulation in rural areas has become a critical issue in Europe. We examine the efficacy of rural development policies aimed at addressing depopulation, focusing on two case studies in Spain: Cinco Villas and Pirineo Navarro. Although both territories have been affected by depopulation, they exhibit structural differences in their population size, geographical concentration, and age structure, leading to distinct depopulation challenges. To con…
Limits to growth revisited
We use a system dynamics environment-economy model to explore how multiple limits to growth may affect global economic output and consumption across different social classes until 2100. Based on a five-dimensional scenario space, we simulate global economic development in 120 scenarios that differ in labor productivity growth, per-capita consumption growth, fossil resource availability, climate change severity, and climate system sensitivity. In …
From Greener growth to sufficiency
This study quantifies two contrasting global sustainability scenarios—FST1: Greener Growth and FST5: Sufficiency Economies—using the MORDRED model. While both pursue high decarbonization without speculative technologies, they embody distinct paradigms: FST1 prioritizes green growth, whereas FST5 centers on sufficiency, redistribution, and well-being within ecological limits. Simulations generate demographic, economic, and biophysical trajectories…
Examining the Effects of Different Policy Approaches to Rural Depopulation Across Spanish Territories
Rural depopulation linked to aging populations, economic decline, and reduced public services has accelerated migration to urban centres in various parts of the European Union and increasingly attracts the attention of policymakers. This study employs the SPANDAM system dynamics model to evaluate the effectiveness of different policy approaches across three representative Spanish rural territories ( Zamora , Pirineo Navarro , and Vitigudino ) thr…
Beyond Green capitalism
Introduction of functionalist and neo-Gramscian state theory into scenario building. • Development of six qualitative fast sustainability transition (FST) scenarios. • Emergence of environmental, socio-ecological and deep-ecological states. • Scenario storylines linked with quantifiable scenario objectives and policies. • High structural barriers and risks to successful and timely transitions. Addressing the theoretical underpinnings of state inv…

A comparative review of de- and post-growth modeling studies
In recent years, a small but rapidly growing field of modeling alternatives to growth as represented by the de- (DG) and post-growth (PG) discourses has emerged. We compare selected model characteristics of 75 DG and PG related modeling studies, compiled through a systematic literature review (2000−2023), and link model structures and results to different theoretically contested debates surrounding DG/PG. The reviewed studies cover different geog…

Between continuous presents and disruptive futures
Despite the great relevance of global environmental scenarios for the study of environmental change and sustainability transitions, they have rarely been the object of analysis for scholars of the social sciences. In this article, we analyze the ideological assumptions of 993 global environmental scenarios contained in 243 academic works. By developing a new categorization of environmental scenarios, we investigate the economic and governance org…
