Sufficiency Policy in the Energy Crisis

ARTE documentary features research by Jonas Lage and co-authors on the implementation of sufficiency policy

The ARTE documentary “Energy Crisis: Is Less More?” explores how societies can respond to the current energy crisis and the role that energy sufficiency can play. It focuses on how sufficiency policy, through immediate measures, can help mitigate the hardships of the energy crisis, while long-term strategies can reduce dependence on high levels of energy and resource consumption.

In this context, the documentary highlights work by Jonas Lage and his co-authors, particularly on the legitimacy of sufficiency policy within citizens’ assemblies.
