Mark H Burton reviews
The Future Is #Degrowth: A Guide to a World beyond #Capitalism.
by Schmelzer, Vetter & Vansintjan (Verso, 2022)

Many critiques of growth/-ism:
- it destroys the very foundations of life on earth
- stands in the way of a more equal society
- makes human relations mechanistic
- is bound up with the capitalist mode of production
- ignores feminism
- uses undemocratic technologies and structures
- distorts South–North relations
