“…They result from the interests of actors who want to maintain domination and power -e.g., mining companies, the coal industry or agro-industrial firms -and provoke resistance. The debate in GAIA about the WBGU report Climate Protection as aWorld Citizen Movement (WBGU 2014, Brunnengräber 2014, Leggewie et al 2015, Bauriedl 2015) is exemplary in terms of a differentiated understanding of conflicts and the roles prescribed to civil society, nongovernmental organi sations (NGOs) and social movements. The strategic version of transformation sees a function for civil society in pushing official public policy, opening alternative spaces, multiplying experi ences but suggests it should not question existing political and economic structures and underlying rationales.…”

“Transformation” is an umbrella term which places the ecological crisis in a broader context. To foster societal change, opinion leaders of the transformation debate are focusing on cooperation and learning, existing political, cultural and economic institutions, and trust in incremental change. However, these leaders are not questioning existing power relations. This bias may partly explain why social-ecological transformation has not yet occurred. A more analytical under standing of transformation can complement and correct some of these shortcomings in order to better understand the obstacles to policy change.

“…Wenngleich kritische Stimmen in der Nachhaltigkeits-und Transformationswissenschaft existieren, gehen Denkansätze und Positionen aus dem Globalen Süden eher selten in die Theorie-und Konzeptbildung sowie in politische Strategien ein. So wurde an anderer Stelle bereits auf Leerstellen im Bereich der Klimapolitik (Bauriedl 2015) (Escobar 2016). Marginalisierung von Stimmen engt Diskurse ein und geht mit einer Dominanz und Normierung von Wissen einher -ein Prozess, der als epistemische Gewalt beschrieben wurde (Spivak 1988).…”

Der Band »Postwachstumsgeographien« untersucht die Raumbezüge diverser und alternativer Ökonomien im Spannungsfeld von wachstumsorientierten Institutionen und multiplen sozialökologischen Krisen. Die Beiträge greifen diesen Ansatz erstmals umfassend auf und eröffnen mit konzeptionellen und empirischen Fachbeiträgen aus der Geographie und deren Nachbardisziplinen verschiedene Perspektiven auf die Möglichkeiten, Forderungen und Kritiken einer sozialökologischen Transformation. Aktuelle Diskussionen zu Postwachstumsökonomien werden aus geographischer Sicht präzisiert und mit Fallstudien und Interviews aus Zivilgesellschaft, Planung und Politik ergänzt.

“…Flagship Reports (WBGU, 2011) and a Special Report from WBGU (2014) have opened a critical debate regarding social contract and a world citizen movement 1 (e.g., Bauriedl, 2015;Biesecker and Winterfeld, 2013;Brunnengräber, 2014;Unmüßig, 2015). Here we present key elements of the debate and the main conclusions of our own analysis.…”

The concept of multiple (economic, ecological, social and political) crisis has arisen from recent tumultuous economic events. This paper uses a feminist perspective to present the concept as a crisis of regeneration of both nature and social reproduction. We intend to go beyond multiple crisis using the notion of a new social contract, to overcome this crisis in a transformative way towards sustainability. A feminist analysis of the concept of social contract is founded on the critique of domination and is based on Carole Pateman's 1998 thesis that the modern social contract is characterized by a ‘separating inclusion’ of women. It also refers to Val Plumwood's critique of the separated and autonomous self, which is part of all classical conceptions of social contract. We argue that overcoming the multiple crisis requires overcoming structures of separation and re‐envisioning concepts of the individual, by discussing the German example of a ‘Social Contract for Sustainability ’ (2011). If the notion of social contract is to become a catalyst for transformation processes leading to sustainability, it cannot be overarching but has to be developed as a multitude of small new social and local contracts.
