Against the Vortex – Zardoz and Degrowth Utopias in the Seventies and Today

Alongside scientific knowledge and collective effort, building a degrowth ecological society will require a different set of stories and myths than the big and fast Promethean fables we’re accustomed to. Using Boorman’s Zardoz as a tool, Into The Vortex unearths the artistic and intellectual output of the a decelerationist 1970s, with an eye toward imagining a very different sort of future.
