An ongoing theme of Professor Koch’s research has been the ways in which capitalist restructuring impact on welfare, wellbeing, employment and inequality. More recently, he has started to combine these research interests with issues of ecological sustainability, particularly climate change, sustainable welfare and degrowth/postgrowth. This guest-lecture is anchored in a research project funded by Lund University’s Research Program for Excellence, focusing on Agenda 2030 and sustainable development: Postgrowth Welfare Systems.
A recently published article from the project which the guest-lecture is based on is:
Koch, M. (2025), Europe in the Postgrowth Era: Towards a Sustainable Welfare Deal. JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies. https://doi.org/10.1111/jcms.13728
