Abstract
This study explores two post-growth initiatives, the doughnut economics in Cornwall and the wellbeing economy in Wales, by the means of a qualitative content analysis of documents related to land-use and transport planning. The study shows that there are traces of post-growth ideas in strategic documents and plans, as well as indications that these ideas also are forming concrete policies, although some documents are still clearly growth oriented. To analyse the implications of post-growth ideas in planning practice and culture, a deeper empirical analysis is needed.
