For economist Fredrik N G Andersson the answer is crystal clear – researchers advocating for degrowth are wrong. “They miss the mark by attacking growth instead of the actual problem,” he says. The subject of degrowth awakes a lot of interest. Its critics are as vocal as its proponents. Fredrik N G Andersson, assistant professor at
