Endless Growth: Are We Consuming Ourselves?

Date:

At the invitation of the Vorarlberg Workers’ Chamber, star economist Niko Paech recently visited the state. The German is the founder of the post-growth economy. He says: “We only have a future if we break with the growth dogma.”

Higher, further, faster. Companies strive for constant growth. The obsessive drive for economic success is paramount. Production is moved abroad, regardless of whether decent wages and salaries are paid there. The most important thing is that the return is good.

Compliance with human rights is only marginal, not to mention safety and environmental standards. The most important thing is that the return is good. But not only soulless capitalists strive for growth, on the contrary – the financing of our welfare state is also based on growth. But this growth has reached its limit.
