This second part argues that the well-living paradigm offers a comprehensive, ecologically conscious, socially just, and fundamentally transformative alternative to dominant, growth-obsessed models of well-being. It is presented not as a theoretical exercise but as a necessary and ongoing practical and political project. The necessary institutional transformations are outlined.
