• Socially sustainable degrowth as a social–ecological transformation: repoliticizing sustainability (2015, background): “Gorz’s commentary exemplifies the encounter of the ecologist and culturalist critiques of economics (Latouche 2011, 2013; Bonaiuti 2013; Martinez-Alier et al. 2010).”
• Growing green money? Mapping community currencies for sustainable development (2013, background): “…UNEP, 2011), but these approaches have been criticised as inadequate in scope and ambition by academics (Daly, 1992; Ekins, 1993; Jackson, 2009; Martínez-Alier et al., 2010; Seyfang, 2009; Victor and Rosenbluth, 2007), commentators (Douthwaite, 1992; Robertson, 1999), policy advisory bodies…”
• How to deal with the rebound effect? A policy-oriented approach (2016, background): “Such measures, often proposed within the ‘degrowth’ movement (Martínez-Alier et al., 2010), can notably reduce rebound effects by limiting one's real income and thus the impact of re-spending effects.”
• Assessing the degrowth discourse: A review and analysis of academic degrowth policy proposals (2017, background): “ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 6 According to Martínez-Alier et al. (2010), the degrowth movement has three main pillars - theoretical, activist and political.”
• In defence of degrowth (2011, background): “Sustainable degrowth instead is the hypothesis that the inevitable – and desirable – economic (GDP) degrowth can be turned socially sustainable (Martinez-Alier et al., 2010; Schneider et al., 2010).”
• Local currencies for purposive degrowth? A quality check of some proposals for changing money-as-usual (2013, background): “Much for the same reason, however, degrowth is presently marginal to policy communities, 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.”
• The Prerequisites for a Degrowth Paradigm Shift: Insights from Critical Political Economy (2018, background): “project – it is more frequently seen as an emerging intellectual paradigm (Martínez-Alier et al., 2010) or as a social movement (Demaria et al.”
• Policy learning and policy failure in sustainable tourism governance: from first- and second-order to third-order change? (2011, background): “The focus on time in much of the sufficiency literature has meant the approach is often related to the notion of “slow” consumption as well as the concept of “decroissance”, “degrowth” or “slow tourism” ( Flipo & Schneider, 2008 ; Hall, 2009a ; Martinez-Alier, Pascual, Vivien, & Zaccai, 2010 ).”
• Degrowing tourism: rethinking tourism (2019, background): “This transformation of values is essential; “the de-growth camp would, in addition to physical critical issues, argue that downsizing is not just a matter of physically reducing throughput as it also involves decolonizing minds from economism” (Martinez-Alier et al., 2010, p. 1744).”
• Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Urban Metabolism (2012, neutral): “Debates focus on how much to downsize in order to achieve sustainability and what might be the optimal scale for the economy (Martinez-Alier et al. 2010b).”
• Green economy and carbon markets for conservation and development: a critical view (2016, background): “One of these streams of thought, arising mainly from Europe, is degrowth, or decroissance, decrecimiento, decrescita, decreixement, Postwachstum, etc. (D’Alisa et al. 2014; Latouche 2009; Martı́nez-Alier et al. 2010; Muraca 2012; Paech 2012).”
