Publisher Description
The Common Sense Manifesto aims to contribute to sustainable development: the process aimed at creating a society that is economically and socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable. It offers the outlines of a Fourth Way, an alternative to right and left wing ideology that aims to rebuild economics, both to lead the global economy out of the 2007 economic and financial crisis and to free the productive potential of society for addressing society’s economic, social and environmental problems. The manifesto presents a framework for a new economics: a social science that gives better insight in how economies function while yielding policies that will help unlock humanity’s productive potential for meeting society’s social, economic and environmental challenges.
This manifesto is an abridged version of the book Crisis, Economics and the Emperor’s Clothes. Why economics fails to deal with society’s economic, environmental and social problems, and what to do about it.
