Reception date: February 22, 2020 Acceptance date: May 20, 2020 Un número cada vez más importante de académicas/os y activistas de Europa y más allá promueven el “decrecimiento” como reacción ante un inminente colapso ecosocial. Abogan por transiciones democráticas hacia sociedades postcapitalistas que puedan funcionar dentro de las fronteras ecológicas y, a la vez, ser socialmente equitativas. Este artículo examina qué implica el decrecimiento y realiza un balance de su situación actual como proyecto académico y político. Se sugiere que, mientras que el proyecto académico está floreciendo, el proyecto político continúa siendo marginal. Ante este panorama, se aborda el interrogante de qué sería necesario para que el proyecto político del decrecimiento cobre impulso.

| description |
In response to the looming eco-social collapse, a growing number of scholars and activists in Europe and beyond call for 'degrowth'. They advocate democratic transitions towards post-capitalist societies that can function within ecological boundaries while being socially equitable. The present paper takes stock of what degrowth entails and addresses where it stands, both as an academic and a political project. It suggests that whereas the academic project is currently flourishing, the political project remains marginalised. Against this background, the question of what it would take for the political project of degrowth to gain momentum is addressed.
