商品描述

This book advocates for a transformative shift in economics, emphasising the need to manage finite resources equitably while safeguarding universal well-being. It introduces the Equitable Optimality economic theory, departing from materialistic views and championing a theory deeply rooted in moral economy, values, and ethics. By integrating spirituality, social justice, and ethics into economic analysis, this model contends that economics can serve the welfare of all, offering a unique lens for economic theory and policy. It challenges prevailing materialistic economic paradigms by proposing an interest-balanced/free financial economy.

This economic theory prioritises profit-sharing, societal objectives, and equitable resource allocation, aiming to create a more inclusive society. However, practical implementation and comprehensive research are crucial for understanding its impact and overcoming transitional challenges.

The Equitable Optimality economic theory provides a valuable perspective within economics, focusing on ethical foundations, acknowledging non-monetary values, and humanising economic agents. It does not aim to replace conventional economic theories but offers an alternative framework to inspire innovative approaches to economic models and policymaking. Its broader policy perspective aims to foster a more prosperous and harmonious society by integrating ethical considerations, equity and justice into economic decision-making and emphasising societal welfare.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書主張在經濟學中進行一個轉型性的改變,強調在保護普遍福祉的同時,公平地管理有限資源的必要性。它介紹了公平最佳性經濟理論,離開了唯物主義觀點,並倡導一個深深根植於道德經濟、價值觀和倫理的理論。通過將精神、社會正義和倫理融入經濟分析,這個模型認為經濟學可以為所有人的福祉服務,為經濟理論和政策提供了獨特的視角。它通過提出一個利益平衡/自由金融經濟來挑戰現有的唯物主義經濟範式。

這個經濟理論優先考慮利潤分享、社會目標和公平資源分配,旨在創造一個更包容的社會。然而,實際實施和全面研究對於理解其影響和克服過渡性挑戰至關重要。

公平最佳性經濟理論在經濟學中提供了一個有價值的觀點,著重於倫理基礎,承認非貨幣價值,並人性化經濟主體。它不旨在取代傳統的經濟理論,而是提供一個替代性框架,以激發對經濟模型和政策制定的創新方法。其更廣泛的政策觀點旨在通過將倫理考慮、公平和正義融入經濟決策,強調社會福祉,促進一個更繁榮和和諧的社會。
