Summary/Abstract: [Post Growth:] Life after Capitalism is an invitation to the reader to imagine our prevailingeconomic paradigm as a temporary thing; a barely surviving remnant of old ways ofbeing; not as the immovable immutable truth it presumes itself to be. … [Post Growth isan invitation to learn from history. It is] power for today is to free our lips from the mantraof yesterday. … Its job right now is to help us reflect honestly on the situation we findourselves in. Its deeper task is to lift our eyes from the ground of a polluted economicsand glimpse a new way of seeing what human progress might mean.
