Transformative Ecological Economics (eBook, ePUB)

Process Philosophy, Ideology and Utopia

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This volume develops a synthesized interpretation of ecological economics integrating different levels; (economic) system, (business) practice and the (economic) actor. It discusses how changes on a systems level are connected to changes in practise and development of individual consciousness. Transformative Ecological Economics delves into the insight and knowledge from different sources of inspiration (Thermodynamics, Darwinism, Anthroposophy and Buddhism) as well as into an integrated story describing and illustrating the core ideas, principles and values which characterize a utopian society anchored in ecological economics.
