Le Café du Savoir : Thesis Focus - Preston Thatcher

Dear listeners,

This week in Thesis Focus we are excited to welcome Preston Thatcher, who wrote his thesis on the compatibility of degrowth principles with the fashion industry. After diving into the main precepts and ideas of degrowth, Preston introduced us to the social and ecological impacts of the fashion industry. We finally discuss how degrowth can apply in the sector and what implications that may have for actors in the industry. 

Here is Preston’s LinkedIn, feel free to reach out to him.

And here are the additional resources he recommends on the topic: 

Less is More: How Degrowth Will Save the World by Jason Hickel 

The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion by Jonathan Haidt 

Ralentir ou Périr: L’économie de la Croissance by Timothée Parrique.
