Description

Decay, frugality, green growth; so many concepts that invite us to rethink our growth appeal as it dominated the 20th century. Where does our conception of limitless economic growth come from? What would have been the opinion of the economists of the 18th and 19th centuries who have laid down the first ideas of what growth should be? What did they think about the relationship between growth and nature? Did they really not see that natural resources are not unlimited?

Answers by Thomas Kayzel, who joined the Sciences Po’s Centre for European Studies and Comparative Politics (CEE) as  a post-doc  of the Bruno Latour Fund.
