Managing without Growth, Second Edition by Peter A Victor

Managing without Growth, Second Edition by Peter A Victor

Three 50 year scenarios are compared: a base case, an ambitious greenhouse gas reduction scenario, and a sustainable prosperity scenario with broader environmental objectives, reduced income inequality, shorter working hours and the cessation of economic growth.

‘This book will appeal to both technical economists and to general readersIt advances a compelling case for the abandonment of growth as a policy objective for rich countries, while acknowledging that more growth is still essential in poorer ones.’ -- Peter C. Grosvenor, Environmental Politics
‘Written in a crisp, clear, concise style, almost totally free of jargon, deeply grounded in data, and superbly referenced, the book is a must-read for those who want to form their own informed opinion about this subject, with or without economic education.’ -- Halina Szejnwald Brown, Local Environment
‘If you want to get into the nuts and bolts of postgrowth economics, then Managing Without Growth is the book for you.’ -- Jeremy Williams, The Earthbound Report
