This book presents a unique real-world-centred approach to economic
life from a phenomenological approach. It offers a much-needed
alternative to conventional economic thinking, giving a
transdisciplinary depiction of the economic process’s social,
cultural, technological, political, and ecological dimensions.
Doing so appeals to students and researchers in economics aiming to
get an alternative to the reductionist model-based approach.
Written in a jargon-free and non-technical way, it appeals to
non-economists alike and those seeking a more profound and living
understanding of the economic process. What is the role of nature
in the economic process? Is there more to economics than we have
been told? Do we have infinite needs? What are these needs? Can we
keep on growing forever? Does economic growth improve our
wellbeing? Why is the income gap widening? What is the role of
financial capital in our current world? Are there other forms of
producing, distributing, and consuming wealth beyond markets? What
are the functions of markets, and how do they work in the real
world? These and many other aspects are discussed in living and
holistic ways in this book. It is a must-read for all those
interested in gaining a more profound and genuine understanding of
our current reality and those looking for ways out of our current
crises.
