He envisions a return to a focus on virtue and a re-prised role for institutions to integrate the desires of individuals with their social obligations. His book Post Growth is both a manifesto for system change and an invitation to rekindle our connection with what it means to be human.We talk:Progress not economic growthLabour vs workMugumo trees in KenyaThe perils of unconstrained novelty-seekingFinding flow for sustainabilityLinks:Tim's WebsiteCentre for the Understanding of Sustainable Prosperity
