Currently I have some qualms with degrowth (and solarpunk) as well as its ideological opposite, ecomodernism. However, as a wise man once said: "No investigation, no right to speak." Thus I wish to better inform myself before I start ranting online.
My understanding is that none of these topics really have a widely agreed upon framework besides the absolute basics, so I'll likely find myself reading ten different opinions on what degrowth means according to ten different degrowthers. Is this correct?
I just read "Socio-economic conditions for satisfying human needs at low energy use" from 2020 and will be reading "In defence of degrowth" from 2010 next. After that, I'll go through Monthly Review's "planned degrowth" July-August 2023 issue. Then I'll look at whatever you comrades recommend. When I'm done with degrowth, I will move on to ecomodernism and maybe solarpunk. Yes I am aware that solarpunk is more of an artistic movement than an actual theoretical tendency.
I would prefer recommendations that I can get finish in under two hours. Videos, podcasts, movies, documentaries, etc. are also fine if you think they're worthwhile. If you truly think a long book is worth the read, I will defer to your judgment.
Thanks.
