Lecture at Queens University Belfast
29th February 2024
Earlier this month, Emma River-Roberts delivered a talk about the classed dynamics of the degrowth movement at Queens University Belfast, jointly hosted by the Centre for Sustainability, Equality and Climate Action, as well as the school of History, Anthropology, Philosophy and Politics. Titled The Degrowth movement’s erasure of the working class struggle, she discussed the class-blind and classist development of the movement – which remains overly Eurocentric, white, middle class and north-centric. It is now available to watch below or by following this link.
The accompanying slides for the lecture can be viewed and/or downloaded below.
