A Call for a New Economics for our Time
sum

Jeffrey Sachs has outdone himself. Working with Prof Leonardo Bechetti he has come up with a description of what economics should be, founded on six pillars: 

  1. A holistic and interdisciplinary approach
  2. A global discipline
  3. A discipline grounded in human nature
  4. A discipline that recognizes the fundamental role of collective action at all levels from the local to the global
  5. A discipline that aims for the “human good” and the “common good
  6. A discipline that promotes a global ethical dialogue and understanding

Looks great to me! Now how to make it happen?
