Hi All,

Here are some other writings that Jason shared with me that he has done since writing Less is More.

1) "The anti-colonial politics of degrowth": https://www.jasonhickel.org/s/Hickel-The-anti-colonial-politics-of-degrowth.pdf

2) "Imperialist appropriation in the world economy: Drain from the global South through unequal exchange, 1990-2015" (this piece demonstrates empirically that growth in the global North relies on a net appropriation of resources, energy and labour from the global South): https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S095937802200005X

3) In this piece for Nature Energy my colleagues and I outline why degrowth is necessary for effective climate mitigation: https://www.jasonhickel.org/s/Hickel-et-al-Urgent-need-for-post-growth-climate-mitigation-scenarios.pdf

4) Here is a short piece on what radical climate policy in the global North would need to look like, drawing on degrowth ideas: https://www.currentaffairs.org/2021/11/what-would-it-look-like-if-we-treated-climate-change-as-an-actual-emergency

5) And here is a proposal for how governments in the global South can throw off the shackles of Northern appropriation and mobilize resources and energy around human development: https://newint.org/features/2021/08/09/money-ultimate-decolonizer-fjf
