📚 The latest CUSP Newsletter is out now.

💡 In his editorial, CUSP co-director Tim Jackson reflects on the Centre’s 10th anniversary and the troubling shift in research funding away from post-growth inquiry. He argues that questioning growth remains vital in an era of climate crisis, inequality, and political instability.

Thomas Watson, English Puritan, writes on the use of money. It can replace support of wage earner, support vocation of defending the oppressed and easing pain. One may lift one up and away from the gates of death.

I seriously heard a pastor say that a Christian should not say the word “oppressed.” But even the pet causes of the Right have a grain of truth of oppression in them.

How can you make appropriate use of money?

Hello fellow menschen in #economics Mastodon! I would like to invest in attending a conference on what goes under the vague label of "new economic thinking" (post-growth, wellbeing economy, mission economy, doughnut. MMT etc etc.). Ideally:

* Taking place from September 2024 to June 2025.
* Not necessarily academic, a strong policy angle would be even better.
* Global South orientation a plus.

Any recommendation? Where are YOU going?

Dear Friends,
If I could make money on Mastodon or any social site by #DoomCasting, I would not. (That's for others who can pull it off.)

Here's a small dose of good news:

The next British government needs a radically new economic strategy which consigns Tory / New Labour neoliberalism to the trash can. It needs to mobilise Britain towards an innovative green sustainable economic pathway. #NewEconomics #GreenNewDeal
