The book is a collection of 51 texts by different scholars and activists, who each adds a dimension/perspective to the topics of degrowth and societal transformation. A societal transformation towards a degrowth society is dependent on a lot of ideas coming together and creating change from various starting points within a society. Therefore, the authors are quite diverse and their contributions vary from being philosophical, natural science based, economic, sociological and so forth. Some are specfiically focused on a concept and others are a more broad critique of e.g., capitalism or growth.
Zu der kurzen Frage „Haben oder Sein?“ entwickelt Erich Fromm in diesem Buch eine tiefgründige Gesellschaftsanalyse, in der er zwei grundsätzliche Existenzformen herausarbeitet: die egoistisch-gewinnorientierte des Besitzens und Verfügens über Dinge und Menschen (Haben) und die altruistisch-solidarische des gebenden Erlebens (Sein). Fromm zeigt, dass unser gegenwärtiges Gesellschafts- und Wirtschaftssystem durch Egoismus, Selbstsucht und Habgier bestimmt ist und unweigerlich zerstörerische Folgen für Mensch und Natur mit sich bringt. Im zweiten Teil des Buches vermittelt er dem Leser durch viele Beispielen Ideen, wie er sich vom „Haben“ in Richtung „Sein“ und damit hin zu einem neuen Menschen entwickeln kann. Im dritten Teil von „Haben oder Sein“ beschreibt Fromm die Voraussetzungen für einen fundamentalen Wandel in Wirtschaft, Politik und Gesellschaft, um die gegenwärtigen Krise zu überwinden und von einer Orientierung am Haben zu einer am Sein zu gelangen.
