Beyond Sustainable Development to Sustainable Societies: Insights from Feminist and Indigenous Theories and Praxis

  • Manisha Desai

摘要

Drawing on feminist, indigenous, and abolitionist thinkers, I suggest that we need a fundamental transformation in how and what we produce, consume, and redistribute and how we relate to each other and to all living and nonliving entities on this earth. This means going beyond sustainable development, a one-size-fits-all model based on neoliberal, market-based growth, to conceptualize place- and culture-specific sustainable societies. I define sustainable societies along three dimensions: economic, epistemic, and political. Sustainable societies are one articulation of eco-social contracts.
