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.

Es gibt keine Gesellschaft ohne Gaben. Was soziale Beziehungen organisiertt, sind nicht Marktprinzipien, sondern ist die dreifache Verpflichtung des Gebens, Nehmens und Erwiderns. Im Anschluss an Marcel Mauss legt Alain Caill einen umfassenden Neuentwurf der Sozialtheorie der Gabe vor. Dazu synthetisiert er die seit rund 40 Jahren vorgenommene Bemühung umm ein Gabenparadigma, insbesondere die Arbeiten der französischen MAUSS-Gruppe, die für einen Anti-Utilitarismus in den Sozialwissenschaften plädiert.Das Ergebnis ist eine allgemeine Theorie des Zusammenlebens, die es ermöglicht, Alternativen zum Neoliberalismus und zu ökonomistischen Visionen menschlicher und nicht-menschlicher Subjekte zu denken. Dabei wird das Potenzial der Gabentheorie und ihrer praktischen Implikationen sichtbar, die neue Perspektiven auf Bereiche wie Ökonomie, Anerkennung, Care, Natur, Konsum, internationale Beziehungen, Herrschaft oder Religion bieten.
