About us

Degrowth Stockholm is a community of people who are interested in exploring the fairly new concept of "degrowth". Degrowth theory questions the capitalist system based on economic growth. We believe a singlehanded focus on economic growth stands in the way of other forms of growth (social, cultural, spiritual) while also maintaining that our current climate crisis has its root in the thought of economic growth which split humans from nature and makes ut take from nature without care.

We just started a book circle where we read "Slow Down" by the Japanese marxist philosopher Kohei Saito. We will also organize other events like game nights and study visits. In the meantime, you are welcome to join our book circle meetings! We read slowly, only one chapter at a time, and our motto is: show up even if you have not read! Everyone can contribute in their own way.
