The Quality of Society (eBook, PDF)

Essays on the Unified Theory of Capitalism

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the policy implications of the unified theory of capitalism-how economic growth has led to a new epoch, the Anthropocene, and it presents a new set of economic principles that are needed in this new age. The unified theory of capitalism has been published as a new scientific endeavor, attempting to present new economics for the Anthropocene age that are empirically verifiable and fully consistent with the physical sciences.

This book elaborates on the implications of the unified theory for both the science of economics and for public policies. In particular, this book develops in more detail the policy implications, discussing the fundamental economic and societal policy issues of our time-employment, inequality, the environment, and quality of life-in empirical terms.
