Abstract

Is it possible to identify, within the Transition Town Movement, such as in the examples of this study, an indicator that could be an expression of micro behaviors? Will it be possible to liberate the concept of “happy” economic degrowth from its academic shackles and create a new useful tool for the emergence of DemocraCity? The conclusive chapter provides a road map of the study, of the approach and methods used to find the answers to the questions and drivers that animate the manuscript.
