This book asks the question, how would economics look today and
into the future if one started with a blank sheet of paper? Written
mainly for a technical audience, yet accessible to the lay reader,
Economics of a Crowded Planet addresses the ontology, epistemology
and methodology of a future economics as if from outside the
economy looking in. It presents a conceptual framework for a future
economics drawing from systems science and hierarchy theory,
integrating central concepts from present-day economics, so as to
orient the field in a direction that can serve society's future
needs in practical ways. The exposition reveals a paradigm called
'market planetarianism': the idea that the power of markets may be
used to steer the economy toward a desired long-term goal. Both a
prescriptive doctrine and an economic methodology, it treats the
economy and nature as instances of complex, evolutionary systems,
demanding analytical tools quite unlike those of the 20th-century
mainstream.
