Every day media and economists alarm us denouncing that the economic growth has slowed. But is an infinite economic development really possible? Starting from these premises and without prejudicial attitudes, this article aims to analyze the interesting possibility of "degrowth". This essay takes as its point of reference Serge Latouche’s work. In his books he analyzes the failure of economism and he also scan the current economic, social and ecological troubles in order to manage the future through the degrowth ethical revolution. May the degrowth be the ultimate solution to the development’s aporias? Unfortunately the answer is not so obvious and the proof is the fact that inside of the "partisans of degrowth"’ movement there are many different way to think about the basic concepts of the theory.
Keywords: Latouche, Pallante, economic growth, degrowth, utopia, pauperism.
