Voorbij duurzaamheid
Voorbij duurzaamheid - Shivant Jhagroe |MOOSEin the CITY
Trendy electric cars, wind turbines, ecotourism and oat milk cappuccinos. Sustainability is hot. And that's a problem. Many so-called 'sustainable solutions' maintain the status quo and are also accompanied by exploitation and exclusion. Designed from a Western framework, 'the sustainable transition' primarily serves capitalists and the white bourgeoisie with purchasing power. And that at the expense of the rest of the world.
In Beyond sustainability Shivant Jhagroe argues that thinking and acting from a perspective of 'sustainability' functions as a green pacifier that prevents radical and just system change. The strong belief in the sustainability fairy tale makes us forget how closely sustainability is intertwined with colonialism, capitalism and social exclusion. He therefore maintains a passionate plea for a different political language and imagination and paves the way for an eco-just society, in which a loving duty of care for Earth and each other is central.
