abstract: 'The extraordinary economic growth rates of the twentieth century are
historically exceptional and a continuation into the future seems
neither possible nor desirable. Consequently, it is in the interest of
public health to actively shape a socioeconomic transformation towards a
system that is not based on growth. ``Degrowth'''' provides coherent
guidelines for such a system. Combining existing scholarship from the
degrowth and the public health fields, this paper makes seven
suggestions for a public health agenda towards sustainable health: (1)
to develop an index of health status in relation to present and future
health burden; (2) to reduce the resource burden of medical therapy; (3)
to translate increased productivity to fewer working hours and more free
time instead of more income and material consumption; (4) to make use of
non-conventional knowledge and non-commercial forms of work and product
exchange; (5) to make knowledge freely available, making use of
innovative research frameworks such as open source drug research; (6) to
relocalize economic life and health-related organization and to reshape
citizen participation and (7) to reduce socio-economic inequality
through redistribution. Generally, this paper argues that it is time for
discussions on degrowth to enter the mainstream medical and health
community and for doctors and other health workers to acknowledge that
they have a significant role to play and important experience to
contribute when our societies face the upcoming challenge of
no-longer-growing economies.'
