En el viaje poblacional que ha realizado el Homo sapiens durante los últimos 250.000 años siempre rigió una ley: crecer, estancarse y decrecer. Durante los últimos siglos, y gracias a combustibles fósiles como el petróleo, nuestra civilización ha crecido como nunca antes. En 200 años se multiplicó por diez el número de habitantes y por casi veinte el consumo per cápita de energía. El costo que pagamos por ello es demasiado alto: la estabilidad de la Tierra corre grave peligro. ¿Es posible alcanzar un desarrollo sostenible o la única alternativa será limitar el crecimiento? De expansiones y retiradas nos invita a un recorrido por la historia poblacional de nuestra especie, intentando encontrar alternativas para este gran desafío que acorrala a la humanidad.
