Levelt, Chevrollier and Argyrou intervene in a conceptual field where degrowth, sufficiency and regeneration are frequently combined too quickly. Their integrative review of seventy-eight organisation-level studies demonstrates substantial overlap but also meaningful divergences in definitions, problem diagnoses, agents of change and practical implications. The paper’s strongest contribution is conceptual discipline: strong sustainability may provide a shared horizon, yet the three approaches cannot simply be merged without erasing their different relations to growth, ownership, profit, limits and ecological repair. Sufficiency is particularly useful as a threshold concept concerned with adequate scales of production, consumption and infrastructure; degrowth adds explicit critique of expansionary political economy; regeneration introduces reciprocal and place-based living-systems relations. Methodologically, the review codes the literature across definitions, principles, actors and trade-offs, converting conceptual ambiguity into a structured comparison. The wider bridge is to organisation studies and ecological economics, where sustainability increasingly depends on distinguishing systemic transformation from incremental “business case” adaptations.
