Energy, surplus and the economic process
This paper analyses the economic process through the concept of surplus, combining insights from ecological economics, Marxist political economy and anthropology. Humans, we argue, appropriate surplus energy with their labor from nature and apply it to transform matter into goods and services, with entropy increasing along the way. How societies distribute and expend their surpluses gives them some of their signature features. In hierarchical soc…
Principles for a post-growth scenario of ambitious mitigation and high human well-being
Beyond the urban shift
Degrowth is coming of age, and its analysis of what can be called degrowth spatial politics is advancing rapidly. In this article, we attempt to unravel the history of spatial thought in the degrowth literature to reveal its tendencies, tipping points, and blank spots. We argue that the more recent degrowth spatial literature overly focuses on the big urban scale by reversing what has purportedly been one of the weak spots of degrowth scholarship…
Post-growth
Existing climate mitigation scenarios assume future rates of economic growth that are significantly higher than what has been experienced in the recent past. In this article we explore how assuming lower rates of growth, in line with the hypothesis of secular stagnation, changes the range of mitigation possibilities. We compare scenarios with moderate and strong policy ambition under both high-growth and low-growth assumptions. The results show t…
