Green growth or degrowth? Assessing the normative justifications for environmental sustainability and economic growth through critical social theory (2019, background): “Although in recent years degrowth has begun to attract academic interest, including the publication of special issues on the topic (e.g. Schneider et al., 2010; Sekulova et al., 2013), the impact remains marginal.”
Transforming Consumption: From Decoupling, to Behavior Change, to System Changes for Sustainable Consumption (2015, background): “Evidence is now clear that this so-called positional consumption can create a self-perpetuating cycle (86, 87), where increasing levels of consumption become normalized, and further consumption is then necessary to keep up or stay ahead.”
Local currencies for purposive degrowth? A quality check of some proposals for changing money-as-usual (2013, background): “…and exists mainly as the banner of a social movement originating in France in the early 2000s (Martínez-Alier et al., 2010), and increasingly also as the subject of academic debate (see e.g. Cattaneo et al., 2012, Kallis et al., 2010, Kallis et al., 2012, Saed, 2012, Sekulova et al., 2013).”
Socially sustainable degrowth as a social–ecological transformation: repoliticizing sustainability (2015, background): “In doing so, we need to be attentive to micro- and macro-level transformations (Sekulova et al. 2013) and to challenge the imaginaries of instrumental rationality, consumerism, utilitarianism and productivism (Muraca 2013).”
A systematic review of the evidence on decoupling of GDP, resource use and GHG emissions, part II: synthesizing the insights (2020, background): “…harmful activities (e.g. fracking, coal mining), the reduction of working hours and redistributive taxation, instead of just putting a price on resources and emissions (Schneider et al 2010, Kallis 2011, Koch 2013, Sekulova et al 2013, Jackson 2016, Green and Denniss 2018, Hickel and Kallis 2019).”
