  • The point of departure for this contribution is the observation that, in the debate about the post-growth society, the transformation of masculinity has not yet been taken into consideration. This is particularly surprising, given that the rise of growth-oriented capitalism has been associated with a subjectivity shaped by growth and its codes of masculinity. Confronting the question of the transition to a post-growth society also means facing the question of how this androcentric form of subjectivity can be overcome. The aim here is to show how the research questions addressed in Caring Masculinities, which are playing an increasingly important role in policy development and masculinities research, can be used productively in addressing issues related to the transition to a post-growth society.
