Die Produktion der Konsumgesellschaft

Alle wollen Wirtschaftswachstum, und keiner weiß genau, was das ist. Klar: Immer mehr, immer besser, immer effizienter soll es werden. Aber was eigentlich? Und wer bringt es zum Wachsen? Wer "Wachstum geht anders" liest, wird so manchen langgehegten Glaubenssatz über Bord werfen müssen.
