Both the planet and queer individuals face oppression from the same harmful forces of heteropatriarchy. By fostering an alliance between these two movements, we aim to unite and empower our collective efforts in defeating toxic binaries, boundaries, and norms that oppress not only queer individuals but all living beings on this planet.

By: Dennis Eversberg

Although growth-critique is currently in vogue and degrowth is mentioned favorably even by the pope in his most recent encyclical, there is as yet almost no scientific research on degrowth as a social movement. We can now present the first empirical findings on the character of this movement, based on a survey we did at the 2014 Degrowth-Conference in Leipzig, in which 814 conference participa...
