Abstract

In this article I explore what critical realist critical ethical naturalism offers degrowth. I briefly set out what degrowth seeks to achieve. I then move on to provide a short account of what critical ethical naturalism is a reaction to, before setting out a generic critical realist account. I then move on to discuss what it offers and some of the issues that may arise, illustrated using Andrew Collier's and Ted Benton's differences over intrinsic worth.
