This book presents a detailed and critical discussion about how human wellbeing can be maintained and improved in a postgrowth era.

Postwar employment standards are being undermined and 'non-standard' employment is becoming more common. While scholars have pointed to negative consequences of this development, this volume also discusses the evidence for a new and socially inclusive European employment standard.

After the 1970s, Western European countries moved from a period of prosperity and full employment to one shaped by stagnation and a crisis in employment. Why, and under what conditions, could relatively stable periods of development that occurred in the past occur again? This book presents a theoretical model to answer these questions.

This book discusses climate change as a social issue, examining the incompatibility of capitalist development and Earth's physical limits and how these have been regulated in different ways. It addresses the links between modes of consumption, energy regimes and climate change during Fordism and finance-driven capitalism.
