The eco principle

ecology and economics in symbiosis

Edición de la obra The eco principle

"At a time when most societies have lost all control and direction, this book not only explains why present economic and political systems are not working, but integrates economic, environmental, social and spiritual dimensions into a new paradigm for understanding and changing them. Instead of our usual thinking in terms of mechanical analogies and essentially static entities, the author introduces the notion of Ecos. This, he argues, provides a more accurate portrayal of the real world as a complex 'nested' structure of interacting, dynamic and constantly changing systems. He then applies this analytical approach based on the time-proven organic systems of the natural world to our understanding of human institutions. He shows how these are not immutable, but shaped by our values and understandings. This opens the way to a more integrated view of the solutions required for the economic, environmental and social problems we face."--BOOK JACKET.
