Sommario/riassunto

A book on the need for a caring economy in the global crisis. In this situation, doing care and doing economy are mutually dependent. The connection that is described is a multifaceted and multi-layered one. It concerns social care, state action and the responsibility of companies. All actors are involved in doing care and doing economy within an ecological framework for a development that is beneficial to life both locally and globally. The author Professor Dr. Wolf Rainer Wendt teaches at the Faculty of Social Work at the Baden-Wuerttemberg



Cooperative State University (DHBW) Stuttgart, Germany. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
