What steps are needed to make life better and more convivial? The Second Convivialist Manifesto
(2020) has presented a short diagnosis of the current crises and sketches of a possible and
desirable future. It has been a necessary work of theoretical synthesis but preserving a
viable world also requires passion. It is thus urgent to show what people would gain from a
shift to a post-neoliberal and post-growth convivialist future. This volume includes a
theoretical debate on convivialism which reflects dystopias and shows the multiple and major
obstacles that convivialism will have to face. Mainly however the contributors to this volume
create sketches of a convivial future and collect accounts of another future world which is
attractive for as many as possible.
