| description | The objective of the author in this text is to defend the following working hypothesis: the increasing use, alteration and extraction of natural resources, and currency speculation, generate different revenues but involve the subtraction of non-renewable resources and, in addition, generate a magnified and accelerated degradation of the environment, and produce social costs, so that revenues should be negative. The methodology used is to put forward a critical interpretation of the conventional concept of revenue and, based on heterodox and unconventional economic theories and someempirical evidence from secondary sources, to find a theoretical result, which consists of the negative revenue proposal. Specifically, the revenues from fossil fuels, gold, and money are discussed. Finally, some guidelines are shown on how negative revenue would work. The main implication of this study is that negative revenue leads to an economic policy oriented towards degrowth. |

The objective of the author in this text is to defend the following working hypothesis: the increasing use, alteration and extraction of natural resources, and currency speculation, generate different revenues but involve the subtraction of non-renewable resources and, in addition, generate a magnified and accelerated degradation of the environment, and produce social costs, so that revenues should be negative. The methodology used is to put forward a critical interpretation of the conventional concept of revenue and, based on heterodox and unconventional economic theories and someempirical evidence from secondary sources, to find a theoretical result, which consists of the negative revenue proposal. Specifically, the revenues from fossil fuels, gold, and money are discussed. Finally, some guidelines are shown on how negative revenue would work. The main implication of this study is that negative revenue leads to an economic policy oriented towards degrowth. El objetivo del autor en este texto es la defensa de la siguiente hipótesis de trabajo: el creciente uso, alteración y extracción de recursos naturales, y la especulación monetaria, generan diversas rentas pero implican substracción de recursos no renovables y, además, generan una magnificada y acelerada degradación de la naturaleza, y producen costes sociales, por lo que la rentas deberían ser negativas. La metodología empleada consiste en exponer una lectura crítica del concepto convencional de renta y, con base en teorías económicas heterodoxas y no convencionales, y alguna evidencia empírica tomada de fuentes secundarias, hallar un resultado teórico, el cual consiste en la propuesta de renta negativa. Concretamente se discuten las rentas de combustibles fósiles, del oro, y del dinero. Al final se muestran algunas pautas de cómo funcionaría la renta negativa. La principal implicación de este estudio es que la renta negativa conduce a una política económica orientada hacia el decrecimiento.
