| Popis: | The crisis in which capitalist societies have been immersed in recent years hasled certain critical sectors to rethinkingof the basic pillars of the system itself ingeneral, and the traditional economicmodels in particular. The Postgrowth Approach questionsmany of the foundations on which the current growth and the unlimited consumption society is based. In this paper we propose a degrowth review from an ecofeminist perspective, and we try to analyze to what extend it can be an opportunity to rethink the crisis and to propose outputs with equality and ecological viability criteria. In the Spanish context, in which the financial crisis has mainly resulted in significant cut of rights and, ultimately, in a deep social and environmental crisis (energy, food, care and social reproduction, etc.), this question becomes even more relevant. Therefore, we intend to delve into theoretical discussions and the proposed practical in the Spanish State, pointing out some of the achievements and, also, most relevant limitations from this ecofeminist perspective. |
