Week 1: Book Announcement

 I am thrilled to announce that for my master thesis, I am venturing into the challenging and exciting field of book writing. I’ve begun working on a book that seeks to provide tentative answers to one of the most critical questions of our time:

How can we achieve public abundance within planetary boundaries in a just way?

This inquiry is grounded in two key assumptions, which I explore at the beginning of the book:

2. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of alternative ways to provide abundance in a regenerative manner—approaches that foster, rather than diminish, economic democracy.

If this topic resonates with you and you want to see this book come to life and be presented to change-makers, I would greatly appreciate your financial support. Your contributions will help cover the costs of editing, publishing, and travel (exclusively by public transport).

You can make a donation through the following link. I will share weekly progress updates on this platform and on my blog.

To those inside and outside academia who resonate with my critiques of the dominant economic system, but who may feel stuck or are eager for discussions on strategy and transition-making. This goes beyond merely diagnosing the crisis or listing potential destinations. 2. To those feeling or suffering from the polycrisis but who haven't yet engaged with literature on degrowth, post-development, ecofeminism, or ecosocialism . This book offers a quick immersion into alternative thinking and transformation-building around justice and the rights of hu
