Yvonne Rydin – Knowledge and Ignorance in Planning for a Post-Growth Future

15 maj 2025 13:00 till 15:00 | Föreläsning
Yvonne Ryding, porträtt

Post-growth thinking has had a recent impetus from both evidence of the immensity of the ecological crisis that we face and the prospects of declining or stagnant economic growth locally. This lecture explores the role of knowledge and knowledge practices in post-growth planning.

It argues that knowing has to be seen in the context of not-knowing and that a more strategic approach is needed, rather than aiming for synthesis of diverse knowledges. This challenges the Enlightenment roots of the planning profession but suggests an alternative that could build political support for a post-growth future.
