AB  - Focuses on the basic concepts and principles of alternative
economics; a new doctrine of economic thought centred around human
communities and their natural environments. The ideas of Karl Polanyi,
Ernst F. Schumacher, and Herman E. Daly are presented as the most
important antecedents. Considering the economy as multiple interplay
among natural ecosystems, economic organizations and human communities,
alternative economics tries to find ways in which economies could have
been made more ecologically benign and humane. Demonstrates the
practical relevance of alternative economics to two fields: first, the
responsibility problematics of economizing and, second, the question of
how to form economic policies which serve real development.
