Week 1: Book Announcement

 I am thrilled to announce that for my master thesis, I am venturing into the challenging and exciting field of book writing. I’ve begun working on a book that seeks to provide tentative answers to one of the most critical questions of our time:

How can we achieve public abundance within planetary boundaries in a just way?

This inquiry is grounded in two key assumptions, which I explore at the beginning of the book:

1. The capitalist system is fundamentally incapable of meeting humanity’s basic needs within planetary boundaries. It perpetuates the exploitation of racial groups, women, nature, and an increasing portion of the working class.

2. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of alternative ways to provide abundance in a regenerative manner—approaches that foster, rather than diminish, economic democracy.

If this topic resonates with you and you want to see this book come to life and be presented to change-makers, I would greatly appreciate your financial support. Your contributions will help cover the costs of editing, publishing, and travel (exclusively by public transport).

You can make a donation through the following link. I will share weekly progress updates on this platform and on my blog.

There are wellbeing, natural and philosophical reasons to reach a steady state, to find what is enough, to celebrate and live with self impossed limits. The literature on the economic stability of such an economy is still rare, 50 years later, and Steffen Lange book, is the best contribution we have at this time. My last posts owe him almost everything I have to say about the topic. It was, the best selftaught course on keynessian and marxists economics I took, as it seems that in mainstream economics, there is over-representation of the neoclassical view of the economy, not leveraging what keynessian, marxists and ecological economics can offer. My prediction is that ecological economics will simply called economics, and the macroeconomics of the steady state will be called simply macroeconomics. In this post I will summarize what I have lear...
