It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that infinite growth in a finite world is bound to creak at some point. So we need a new economic narrative that fits between the social floor and the environmental ceiling.
Reconnecting to our world, connecting to each other. The author evokes new patterns of thinking for a sustainable economy … An inspiring research that repositions us as social, interdependent and cooperating beings, beings of approximation that depend on the living world.
