Prosperity without Growth challenges the embedded, unquestioned assumptions of the global policy of growth and shows that it is necessaryand possibleto have increased and widespread prosperity without economic growth.The modern economy is reliant on economic growth for stability. When growth falters, politicians panic, businesses fail, people lose jobs, and recession looms. Tim Jackson argues, however, that continual growth is just not possible, not sustainableto believe so is ignoring our knowledge of the finite resource base and fragile ecology in which we live.The book starts with a compelling analysis of the consequencesfor the planet and for peoples wellbeingof the relentless pursuit of economic growth and material goods. It illustrates why a return to business as usual after the current financial crisis is not an option. Prosperity for a few founded on ecological destruction and persistent social injustice is no foundation for a civilized society.The current economic crisis presents a unique opportunity to invest in change and a future that delivers lasting prosperity for the predicted 9 billion people who will inhabit the earth in 2050. The authora leading expert and advisor to the UK governmentconcludes by outlining pathways towards a sustainable economy. It involves radically changing our shop until you drop mentality, as well as engaging other disruptive economic practices. Jackson doesnt claim this will be easy, but points out that while action is urgent, it is possible.The book opens up dialogue on the most urgent task of our timesthe challenge of a new prosperity encompassing our ability to flourish as human beingswithin the ecological limits of a finite planet.
