Climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution of land and water,
land-use changes, lack of equality and other problems at local,
national and global levels represent a challenge for economics as a
social science. Mainstream neoclassical economics may be able to
contribute to a more sustainable society but it has also played a
dominant role in a period where problems have been aggravated. A
pluralist and democratic view of economics is therefore very much
warranted. This book presents a multidimensional and ideologically
more open view of economics: understanding economics in
multidimensional terms is in accordance with the 17 sustainable
development goals recognized by nations at the UN-level in 2015.
Accordingly, approaches to decision making and accounting at the
national- and business levels have to be reconsidered. Neoclassical
Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) with focus on the monetary dimension
and an assumed consensus about a specific market ideology to be
applied is not compatible with democratic societies where citizen
and actors in other roles normally differ with respect to
ideological orientation. Environmental Impact Statements and
Multi-Criteria methods are used to some extent to broaden
approaches to decision-making. In this book, Positional Analysis is
advocated as a multidimensional and ideologically open approach.
Positional Analysis is based on a political economic conceptual
framework (as part of ecological economics) that differs from
neoclassical ideas of individuals, firms and markets. And since
approaches to decision-making and to accounting are closely
connected, a new theoretical perspective in economics similarly
raises issues of how national and business accounting can be opened
up to meet present demands among various actors in society. This
perspective raises also numerous ethical questions at the science
and policy interface that need to be properly addressed for
sustainability decision making.

If the world of leadership is the world of action, why does being
reflective matter? Why take time out? Why explore the inner world
of thought and feeling, the quieter outer processes of dialogue and
conversation?

capacities through reflection.
It is a pocket resource for those who lead by title as well as
those who simply make the world a better place by their example. An
aid to leaders who are on the run, it is particularly meant for
those weary souls who need to find a breathing space in their busy
lives in order to be more powerful in service to what matters most
to them.
It reflects the author's words from her poem Fire:
What makes a fire burn
is space between the logs,
a breathing space...

Judy Brown's beautiful first collection of poetry is called
'Loudness'. A straightforward manner and a gift for ironic humour
belie the artful complexities and the exacting observations evident
in her work. Titles like 'The ExPats', 'The P45', 'The Crash', kick
start edgy narratives featuring characters who will suffer for
their modern sins. Alternatively there are also disquisitions on
colour, perception, ex-angels, spontaneous combustion and other
mysterious phenomena. This baroque quality, along with her sudden
modulations of tone and register, and a keenly sensuous
appreciation of the physical world, is reminiscent of the
metaphysical poets. She is an outstanding and original new voice in
modern poetry.
