Acknowledgement -- Foreword -- Chapter 1 Reimagining the Suburbs beyond Growth -- Chapter 2 Carbon Suburbia and the Energy Descent Future -- Chapter 3 Light Green Illusions and the ‘Blind Field’ of Techno-Optimism -- Chapter 4 Resettling Suburbia: A Post-Capitalist Politics ‘From Below’ -- Chapter 5 Unlearning Abundance: Suburban Practices of Energy Descent -- Chapter 6 Degrowth in the Suburbs: Envisioning a Prosperous Descent -- Chapter 7 Regoverning the City: Policies for a New Economy -- Chapter 8 A New Suburban Condition Dawns -- Index.

This book addresses a central dilemma of the urban age: how to make suburban landscapes sustainable in the face of planetary ecological crisis. The authors argue that degrowth, a planned contraction of overgrown economies, is the most coherent paradigm for suburban renewal. They depart from the anti-suburban sentiment of much environmentalism to show that existing suburbia can be the centre-ground of transition to a new social dispensation based on the principle of enlightened material and energy restraint.
