Summary/Abstract: Authors focus on the urgent need for a radical growth policy agenda within the EU and its member states. They develop a concept of growth which is distinct from 'capitalist growth' and from the simple expansion of the output of exchange values; they thereby seek to address the issues of ecological and economic sustainability as well as the development of global human society under the conditions of solidarity and justice.
