Publisher's Synopsis
In Tomorrow's Economy, Per Espen Stoknes reframes the hot-button issue of economic growth. Going beyond the usual dialectic of pro-growth versus anti-growth, Stoknes calls for healthy growth. Healthy economic growth is more regenerative than destructive, repairs problems rather than greenwashing them, and restores equity rather than exacerbating global inequalities. Stoknes-a psychologist, economist, climate strategy researcher, and green-tech entrepreneur-argues that we have the tools to achieve healthy growth, but our success depends on transformations in government practices and individual behaviour. Stoknes provides a compass to guide us toward the mindset, mechanisms, and possibilities of healthy growth.
