Sumario:Degrowth challenges dominant discourses and growth-based responses to global crises, proposing radical alternatives to foster sustainable livelihoods. This thesis examines degrowth theory through a dialogical and hermeneutic analysis of interdisciplinary literature. It asks how degrowth can be promoted, departing from philosophy for making peace(s) and a feminist methodology. Integrating feminism(s) as a part of a degrowth approach serves its aim to be just and makes it more peaceful. Feminist economics, ecofeminisms, decolonial and queer (eco)feminism can enhance degrowth. Different framing options for degrowth are examined. The Coronavirus pandemic is considered a current-day expression of a crisis affecting degrowth communication. Conclusions point to the need for diversified degrowth-related communication to reach broader audiences. Degrowth theory may benefit from a transrational peace view. Decolonial and feminist theories can bridge limiting onto-epistemological assumptions of both degrowth and plural peace philosophies.
