Requirements for a Future Economics.This book asks the question, how would economics look today and into the future if one started with a blank sheet of paper? Written mainly for a technical audience, yet accessible to the lay reader, Economics of a Crowded Planet addresses the ontology, epistemology and methodology of a future economics as if from outside the economy looking in. It presents a conceptual framework for a future economics drawing from systems science and hierarchy theory, integrating central concepts from present-day economics, so as to orient the field in a direction that can serve society’s future needs in practical ways. The exposition reveals a paradigm called ‘market collectivism’: the idea that the power of markets may be used to steer the economy toward a desired long-term goal. Both a prescriptive doctrine and an economic methodology, it treats the economy and nature as instances of complex, evolutionary systems, demanding analytical tools quite unlike those of the 20th-century mainstream.Environmental economicsClimate changeEnvironmental policyEconomic policySchools of economicsEnvironmental Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W48000Climate Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U12007Environmental Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33040Economic Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010Heterodox Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W53000Environmental economics.Climate change.Environmental policy.Economic policy.Schools of economics.Environmental Economics.Climate Change.Environmental Policy.Economic Policy.Heterodox Economics.330.0112338.9Murison Smith Fraserauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut892325MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQCaOWtUBOOK9910357827803321Economics of a Crowded Planet1992591UNINA
