Modern, industrialized economics strives for endless growth. The social policies they promote lay waste to natural systems and exploit vulnerable populations. The result is global crises and disruptions. Renegade economist Kate Raworth brings a counter vision of human prosperity based on making economics fit 21st-century realities. In The Doughnut Economics, Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist, Kate is building on the insights of Hazel Henderson, host of this SSF webinar series and President of Ethical Markets. Hazel has been critiquing the limitations of economics and its statistics in steering complex industrial societies for 60 years.
