Synopsis

This open access book is an exploration of a new economic paradigm that envisions regenerative civilizations. It dives into the conceptual foundations for a new economic architecture, explores building blocks of regenerative economies and shows a tapestry of economic practices pioneering the new. On the backdrop of the multiplicity of contemporary global crises and the deficiencies of prevailing economic paradigms it departs from traditional economic models. Authored by a diverse group of notable international experts, the book advocates for a fundamental shift in understanding the purpose of economies as a cornerstone of societal wellbeing. It lays the groundwork by emphasizing life-centered core elements of economies such as ecology, peace, sustainability, care, and the role of the commons. This book serves as a thought-provoking guide for policymakers, economists, and concerned scholars, urging a shift towards regenerative civilizations informed by life-sustaining economic systems.
