Post-Growth


We want to build cultural, economic and legal incentives into our organizations that makes longevity the stable-state goal and an 'exit' unattractive or even impossible.

Muni projects always look for ways to funnel any excess profits right back into the open source ecosystem which we are building on top of.

That’s a core tenet of post-growth entrepreneurship.

The trick is make all *things* in a non-extractive manner.

Non-extractive organizations pursue systemic health by setting objectives that contribute to the communities in which they operate. They are conscious of the various ways they impact upon people and the planet and make this explicit in their weighing of interests.

Kate Raworth: A healthy economy should be designed to thrive, not grow

A quoi ressemblerait une économie durable et universellement bénéfique ? « A un donut », dit l'économiste d'Oxford Kate Raworth. Dans une intervention exceptionnelle et révélatrice, elle explique comment nous pouvons sortir les pays du trou -- où les gens ne subviennent pas à leurs besoins fondamentaux -- et créer des économies régénératrices, distributives qui fonctionnent dans les limites écologiques de la planète.
