Video Description
As today’s ecological and economic crises reveal the contradictions inherent in our productive model, the idea of degrowth — radically descaling production and consumption — has gained passionate advocates as well as critics. Should degrowth be our political priority? Can we downscale the economy and avoid the threat of recessionary crisis?
In this event, we are joined by Branko Milanović and Jason Hickel, whose discussions on degrowth have sparked global attention.
Speakers:
Professor Branko Milanovic
