Taking post-war Germany as a\u00a0starting point, it examines how the idea of growth\u00a0was spread by a set of transnational actors, such as managers, educators, and development workers.\u00a0Within this context, it\u00a0focuses on the norms and practices that have shaped our professional and private lives well into the twenty-first century. The project is based on several case studies, ranging from\u00a0productivity trainings in the late 1940s to the movement for green growth. To illustrate the evolution of\u00a0growth-oriented society, it uses a variety of primary sources, such as\u00a0marketing brochures, school curricula, and trade union reports, that reflect the rhetorical and visual trends underpinning the status of\u00a0GDP. By taking a historical approach to a\u00a0debate dominated by economists and political scientists, it\u00a0sheds light on the subtle factors that have shaped what one might call the \u2018productive society\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Jan St\u00f6ckmann This project explores the\u00a0cultural factors that have made economic growth an almost universal standard since the end of the\u00a0Second World War.
