DoomsdaysCW<p>An excerpt from: The ‘<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/degrowth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>degrowth</span></a>’ movement envisions global <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateJustice</span></a>, but must adapt to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GlobalSouth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GlobalSouth</span></a> realities</p><p>Published: February 6, 2025<br>by Claudius Gräbner-Radkowitsch and Birte Strunk</p><p>What about the global south?</p><p>"Today, many degrowth advocates assert that the richer countries of the global north, being largely responsible for environmental degradation, should be the ones to scale back economic activity to avert ecological catastrophe. But what about the poorer countries of the global south? Should they adopt degrowth strategies? Some argue this would impose a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/neocolonial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neocolonial</span></a> agenda, with wealthier countries once again dictating the terms of global development. Others note that many poorer countries need economic growth to combat poverty. And even if degrowth were limited to the north, it could still have significant effects on the south – both positive and negative.</p><p>"A review of academic literature on degrowth and the global south reveals two main perspectives: those who see degrowth as incompatible with the south’s development needs, and those who believe it could offer synergies with sustainable development goals.</p><p>"Supporters of degrowth often point out that many of its core ideas originate in the global south. Anthropologist Jason Hickel cites figures such as Sri Lankan philosopher <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AnandaCoomaraswamy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AnandaCoomaraswamy</span></a>, Indian economist <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JCKumarappa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JCKumarappa</span></a> and Bengali poet <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RabindranathTagore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RabindranathTagore</span></a> as inspirations. While these thinkers may not use the term 'degrowth', they promote ideas aligned with it, such as the Latin American <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SumakKawsay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SumakKawsay</span></a> (or “<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BuenVivir" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BuenVivir</span></a>”) or the South African <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a>. These non-Western perspectives have been instrumental in shaping the degrowth discourse in the global north. </p><p>Degrowth as decolonisation</p><p>"Degrowth advocates argue that scaling back economic activity in the north could help dismantle the unequal global division of labour, in which raw materials are extracted from the south and processed into consumer goods in the north. This system disproportionately benefits wealthier nations while leaving poorer countries with the social and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/environmental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>environmental</span></a> costs. </p><p>"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FedericoDemaria" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FedericoDemaria</span></a>, a researcher in political ecology, argues that northern countries must 'pay for past and present <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/colonial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>colonial</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/exploitation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>exploitation</span></a> in the south' – a central theme in contemporary degrowth discourse.</p><p>"Some researchers suggest that dependence on economic growth is problematic for both the north and south. They argue that growth alone does not guarantee poverty reduction – wealth distribution and institutional reforms are just as crucial. Degrowth could help both regions avoid <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/unsustainable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>unsustainable</span></a> development models by focusing more on social well-being than perpetual economic expansion."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://theconversation.com/the-degrowth-movement-envisions-global-climate-justice-but-must-adapt-to-global-south-realities-238276" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theconversation.com/the-degrow</span><span class="invisible">th-movement-envisions-global-climate-justice-but-must-adapt-to-global-south-realities-238276</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SolarPunkSunday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolarPunkSunday</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PostColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PostColonialism</span></a></p>

But Solarpunk has yet to fully incorporate Indigenous perspectives and ways of knowing, despite their potential to contribute valuable insights and solutions to contemporary environmental and political challenges. This essay will explore the benefits of incorporating Indigenous perspectives into Solarpunk, explain how this can shift our focus towards a more community and nature-based approach, and address key problems in modern society.</p><p>"Indigenous perspectives on nature differ greatly from Western perspectives, which often view humans as separate from and above nature. In contrast, a lot of Indigenous worldviews typically understand humans as equal to and a part of the natural world. This perspective emphasizes the importance of community and connection to the environment and recognizes the interdependence of all living beings. Incorporating these perspectives into Solarpunk can help shift the focus away from individualistic and exploitative approaches to the environment and towards a more community-based and regenerative approach.</p><p>"One way in which Solarpunk can incorporate Indigenous perspectives is through the use of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK). TEK encompasses Indigenous knowledge and practices related to ecological management and can offer valuable insights into sustainable and regenerative practices. </p><p>"For example, traditional land management practices such as prescribed burning have been shown to reduce the risk of wildfires and promote biodiversity. Incorporating TEK into Solarpunk can lead to more effective and holistic approaches to sustainability and renewable energy. (Here is an example of traditional land management through prescribed burning, which has been used for thousands of years by Indigenous communities.)</p><p>"Another way in which Solarpunk can benefit from Indigenous perspectives is through the recognition of Indigenous sovereignty and land rights. Indigenous communities have often been at the forefront of environmental and social justice movements, fighting for their right to self-determination and protection of their land and resources. Incorporating these struggles and perspectives into Solarpunk can promote a more just and equitable society, where Indigenous communities are recognized and respected.</p><p>"Incorporating Indigenous perspectives into not Solarpunk not only enriches the genre, but also offers a new way of looking at our relationship with the natural world. By acknowledging the inherent value of nature and the interconnectedness of all living beings, we can begin to shift away from the exploitative mindset that has led to so many of the ecological and social problems we face today. This approach aligns with Indigenous ways of knowing, which recognize that humans are not separate from nature, but rather a part of it. By centering community and nature-based approaches in Solarpunk, we can address key problems such as climate change, environmental degradation, social inequality, and colonialism, and move towards a more sustainable and just future.</p><p>"One potential challenge in incorporating Indigenous perspectives into Solarpunk is the risk of cultural appropriation and tokenization. It is important to acknowledge and respect the sovereignty and agency of Indigenous communities and not simply use their perspectives and knowledge for the benefit of non-indigenous individuals or groups. This means engaging in meaningful and respectful collaboration with Indigenous communities, listening to their perspectives, and ensuring that they have agency and control over how their knowledge is used and shared. By centering Indigenous sovereignty and respecting Indigenous knowledge, Solarpunk can move towards a more ethical and just approach to sustainability and renewable energy.</p><p>"In conclusion, incorporating Indigenous perspectives into Solarpunk can lead to a more holistic and community-based approach to sustainability and renewable energy. By recognizing the importance of community and connection to the environment, and incorporating traditional ecological knowledge and Indigenous sovereignty, Solarpunk can offer solutions to contemporary and environmental and social challenges. By promoting collective well-being and prioritizing regenerative practices, Solarpunk can lead us towards a more equitable and just future."</p><p>Source: <br><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comments/13bgfug/solarpunk_and_indigenous_perspectives_a_call_for/?rdt=37491" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">reddit.com/r/solarpunk/comment</span><span class="invisible">s/13bgfug/solarpunk_and_indigenous_perspectives_a_call_for/?rdt=37491</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SolarPunkSunday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolarPunkSunday</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TEK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TEK</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TraditionalKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TraditionalKnowledge</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TraditionalEcologicalKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TraditionalEcologicalKnowledge</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PostColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PostColonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalJustice</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SocialJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SocialJustice</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PostCapitalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PostCapitalist</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Sovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sovereignty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LandBack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LandBack</span></a></p>

Smaran Dayal<p>Sure, there’s an orientalist discourse about Qatar (just as there is about all of West and South Asia). But there’s also a postcolonial, left, and queerfeminist lens at work in the critiques of ultra-capitalism, migrant labor exploitation and deaths, petro-states, and the absence/limited nature of queer, trans, and women’s freedoms. Western orientalism and uncritical “Global South” solidarity (which scarcely even applies here: this is a Global North state in economic terms) are emphatically *not* the only possible political positions. <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/poco" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poco</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/petrostates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>petrostates</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/migrantrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>migrantrights</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/lgbtqrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lgbtqrights</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/postcolonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>postcolonialism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/critiquebeforesolidarity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>critiquebeforesolidarity</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/orientalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>orientalism</span></a></p>
