Abstract

Walter Stahel est un pionnier de la notion d’économie circulaire. Architecte de formation, il prône depuis les années 1970 le retour à des modes de production permettant de prolonger la durée de vie des objets, nécessitant peu d’énergie et de ressources mais beaucoup de main d’œuvre. La plupart de ses livres, riches en exemples vertueux mais souvent écrits sur le ton de traités d’économie, ne sont pas faciles d’accès. Ce n’est pas le cas de cet ouvrage sorti en 2019. Il résume les principales recommandations de Stahel pour la mise en place d’une économie circulaire. Le livre s’adresse aux autorités publiques, aux industriels et, plus largement, à tous ceux qui souhaitent jouer un rôle dans cette transition vers des principes de circularité. A Circular Economy seeks to rebuild capital, whether this is financial, manufactured, human, social or natural, and offers opportunities and solutions for all organisations. This book, written by Walter Stahel, who is widely recognised as one of the key people who formulated the concept of the Circular Economy, is the perfect introduction for anyone wanting to quickly get up to speed with this vitally important topic for ensuring sustainable development. It sets out a new framework that refines the concept of a Circular Economy and how it can be applied at industrial levels. This concise book presents the key themes for busy managers and policymakers and some of the newest thinking on the topic of the Circular Economy from one of the leading thinkers in the field. Practical examples and case studies with real-life data are used to elucidate the ideas presented within the book.

Abstract

At heart, this book aims to inspire fearless innovators committed to spearheading the future of fashion. It is for all of us looking to make a positive impact in an industry that we love and care about. It is increasingly acknowledged that the practice of design is not exclusive to designers, nor is it found only in studios. The materials, garments, services, shows, supply chains and stores that make up the fashion industry all work the way they do because of innumerable design decisions, made by creatives all over the world. Circular design goes far beyond rethinking single products or services, it has the potential to redefine how the entire fashion system operates. It's a chance for anyone in the fashion industry - regardless of job title - to support the shift to a circular economy where, by design, waste and pollution are eliminated, products and materials are circulated, and nature is regenerated. Circular design is a pioneering practice of design. It is the creative opportunity of the coming decade for the creatives, innovators, and pioneers who seek to reshape the fashion industry.
