Özet

Mevcut küresel ekonomik sistem ekonomik, toplumsal ve çevresel krizler üreten bir sistemdir. Bu durum, sistemin her açıdan sürdürülemez olduğunu kanıtlamakta ve sistemin gidişatı için alternatif yollar araştırılması gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır. Küresel ekonomik büyüme paradigmasının radikal bir eleştirisi olarak ortaya çıkan küçülme, sınırsız büyümenin mantığına ve onun zararlı ekonomik, toplumsal ve çevresel etkilerine meydan okur. Küçülmenin savunucuları, bu meydan okumayı ekonomi ile doğa arasındaki çatışmaya bir çözüm olarak önererek, toplumsal, kültürel ve politik boyutları da kapsayan köklü bir dönüşüme olan ihtiyacı vurgularlar. Bu çalışma, küresel ekonomik büyüme paradigmasının radikal bir eleştirisi olarak küçülme fikrinin ortaya çıkışı ile küçülme hipotezinin ekonomik, toplumsal ve çevresel argümanlarını politik ekonomi perspektifinden analiz etmeyi ve küçülmeye yönelik eleştirileri tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır.

Abstract

The current global economic system is a system that produces economic, social and environmental crises. This situation proves that the system is unsustainable in every respect and reveals the necessity of searching for alternative paths for the course of the system. Emerging as a radical critique of the global economic growth paradigm, degrowth challenges the logic of unlimited growth and its harmful economic, social and environmental effects. Advocates of degrowth propose this challenge as a solution to the conflict between economy and nature, emphasizing the need for a radical transformation that includes social, cultural and political dimensions. This study aims to analyze the emergence of the idea of degrowth as a radical critique of the global economic growth paradigm and the economic, social and environmental arguments of the degrowth hypothesis from a political economy perspective and to discuss the criticisms towards degrowth.
