In this episode, we learn about how social movements can change the world by representing the interest of an organized group of people. Cristián Alarcón Ferrari talks with us about his experience working with those kinds of organizations from his perspective as a lawyer and social science researcher. We also discuss concepts such as populism, degrowth, and social-ecological change.

Meat alternatives are becoming more common and give room for fruitful discussions. With our expert and hero Malte Rödl, it is food for thought to look at the meaning of meat alternatives.
