Post-Growth Approaches and Well-being: A Critique 44 -- 4. Alternative Economic Systems: Modern versus Ancient -- 5. Economic System Beyond the Premise of Self-interest.Zusammenfassung: Why has global economic growth failed to deliver equity, sustainability, and well-being for all? Despite decades of growth-centric and free-market policies, poverty and inequality persist, and the unchecked exploitation of natural resources threatens the planet’s future. This thought-provoking book critically examines the limitations of current economic models and highlights how growth has often been achieved at the cost of environmental and social health. Drawing from ancient Indian philosophical traditions, historical and cultural practices—while steering clear of religious dogma—the authors challenge the modern obsession with profit maximization, consumerism, and self-interest. They advocate for a behavioral and ethical transformation in economic thinking: one rooted in community, sustainability, and intergenerational equity. This work is the product of years of dialogue with scholars, thinkers, and practitioners, and offers a powerful alternative vision: an economy that not only thrives but also uplifts all.PPN: PPN: 193250155XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-EES | ZDB-2-SXEE
