3th International Conference on Degrowth

for Ecological Sustainability and Social Equity

Venice (Italy), 19th-23rd September 2012

THE GREAT TRANSITION Degrowth as a passage of civilization

Degrowth is today not only an invitation to abandon the obsession with growth and

the collective imagination based on unlimited growth, but also the most

comprehensive effort to deal with the major phase of discontinuity our civilization is

facing. Issues as climate change and ecological crisis, the struggle for social and

environmental justice, the looting of resources, peak oil and energy crisis, all

accompanied by the growing dependence on technology and a huge crisis of social ties

remind us the vastness of the challenge that awaits us. We are asked nothing less

than to begin a journey of conversion and transformation of material and cultural

foundations of the so-called "developed" societies.

This path involves the re-signification of the very idea of welfare or well-living, the

reconstruction on a basis of justice and interdependence of the "north-south"

relationship and the redefinition of a pact of solidarity between generations. A change

putting on our agenda topics and issues apparently very different - work, income,

consumption, waste, energy, technology, mobility, education, citizenship - but actually

inextricably linked.

A project of degrowth exempt from all reductionism, economic ecological or political,

can be proposed only through comparison and discussion that pay attention to

connections, interactions, transversal linking, with a strong cross-disciplinary look

capable of holding together natural and social sciences.

We will also pay particular attention to the different dimensions tied to the

participation to the Conference and to conviviality, from travel arrangements to the

sharing of food, from the time together to all forms of exchange.

Whoever contributed to developing and idea in the workshop can promote it here if they like, and also see (and "adopt" if they wish) other people's initiatives. This "garden of ideas" will be open to all conference participants and will help create the links and contacts which will preserve and keep up what was sowed in the previous days at the conference.
