Today's global interlocking crises in the economic, ecological and social realms point to the
need for profound change. Sustainable degrowth supporters propose multiple alternatives to
move away from the dominant economic growth model, which they consider as the
underlying problem. In this thesis, I investigate the intersection of degrowth and feminism, to
identify how the promising degrowth movement can be enhanced and promoted.
The economic growth model has been identified as patriarchal, in many ways. The two
movements diametrically opposing economic growth and patriarchy, namely degrowth and
feminism, only partially overlap. Degrowth lacks feminist voices and dominant contemporary
feminism is deemed compatible with economic growth. Paying attention to the intersection of
degrowth and feminism, I make use of the concept of Yin. Yin represents the feminine
principle, that needs to be embraced in order to establish healthier relationships with money,
economics and a more sustainable livelihood in general. This transrational perspective reaches
beyond both movements, pointing to the power of meaning-making as opposed to the
definition of an absolute truth, as a tool for profound societal change. [-]
