Description
Omniconomics shows how we can make human society intrinsically sustainable, harmonically embedded in nature, with the help of a completely new approach in which traditional economics is transformed.
"This is an important contribution to thoughtful engagement with sustainability in a context of major economic reformation. The author presents a breakthrough concept, underlined with engaging pedagogy, that identifies sustainability fault lines while suggesting comprehensive ideas to address systemic shortcomings. Omniconomics is a very current and truly innovative book!"
Charles Hopkins, UNESCO Chair in Reorienting Education towards Sustainability, York University, Canada
"It is no longer difficult to analyze the shortcomings of economics as a protoscience. One only has to look at the environmental destruction, cultural devastation, economic inequality, and social agony it has wrought. The challenge is to imagine what can replace it and guide us to deep intrinsic sustainability in balance with nature. Niko Rooda has done it again— given us a theoretical and imaginative update on sustainable development and provided us a much-needed critique of economics at the same time! May this sustainability narrative of new systematics help to replace the old thinking."
Peter Blaze Corcoran, Professor Emeritus, Environmental Studies and Environmental Education, Florida Gulf Coast University, Fort Myers, Florida
