Die meisten Sozialwissenschaften beschäftigen sich mit der Ideengeschichte ihres Faches im Grundstudium. Anders in der Volkswirtschaftslehre.

Im Angesicht der Klimakrise und der Fridays-for-Future-Proteste hat das Netzwerk Plurale Ökonomik unter #Economists4Future dazu aufgerufen, Impulse für neues ökonomisches Denken zu setzen und bislang wenig beachtete Aspekte der Klimaschutzdebatte in den Fokus zu rücken. Dabei geht es beispielsweise um den Umgang mit Unsicherheiten und Komplexität sowie um Existenzgrundlagen und soziale Konflikte. Außerdem werden vielfältige Wege hin zu einer klimafreundlichen Wirtschaftsweise diskutiert – unter anderem Konzepte eines europäischen Green New Deals oder Ansätze einer Postwachstumsökonomie.

The climate crisis is not primarily a problem of ‘believing science’ or individual ‘carbon footprints’ – it is a class problem rooted in who owns, controls and profits from material production. As such, it will take a class struggle to solve. In this ground breaking class analysis, Matthew T. Huber argues that the carbon-intensive capitalist class must be confronted for producing climate change.
The podcast exposes the concept and principles of co-operatives and the three main types of co-operatives: the consumer, credit and farmers buying and selling co-operatives. Furthermore, the history of the co-operative movement is presented. The authors draw the line from co-operatives to "degrowth" by arguing that these organisations discourage profit maximisation due to their ownership structure, their social purpose and their primacy of people over capital. The value of the members' co-operative share does not increase with the growth of a co-operative and it can not be used for speculation. Finally, the authors give examples for current co-operatives which empower (local) communities fostering social justice and environmentalism.
