In our age of impending climate catastrophe, the conventional wisdom around GDP and economic growth is no longer fit for purpose; a rising tide sinks all boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOliver De Schutter argues that we must rethink the fight against poverty. The quest for economic growth not only clashes with the need to remain within planetary boundaries, but in fact creates the very social exclusion it is intended to cure: deteriorating human rights, widening the gap between the richest and the poorest, and merely modernising poverty without eliminating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Poverty of Growth makes a clarion call to social movements, trade unions and environmental NGOs alike to forge a new pathway towards a 'post-growth' development, and a narrative of progress that is no longer orientated around wealth and profit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42662116491308,"sku":"9780745350233","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/products\/9780745350233.jpg?v=1708333426","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.live\/products\/9780745350233","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
