ABSTRACT

This paper reflects on regional perspectives in a post-growth world, taking the case of population loss as an example. Building on existing knowledge and illustrating with descriptive examples, three aspects of population loss that bear further study are highlighted: its ubiquity, dynamism and geography. The paper closes by emphasizing the importance of researching, thinking about and engaging with population loss to contribute to our understanding of a world of less, not more.
