The economy to come.

Summary The back cover states: "Rethinking the heritage of the Enlightenment, reflecting on modernity, deconstructing capitalism, reweaving the decaying social bond, and healing the wounds of colonization. Gaël Giraud and Felwine Sarr blend philosophy, spirituality, politics and economics. They remind us that the economy is not an end in itself and insist on the need for humanity to define a project that is greater than the mastery of instruments. They propose not only to rethink macroeconomics in order to bring it into dialogue with all the sciences, so as to create a relational economy, but also to modify the epistemological structures of our societies as a whole. To remedy contemporary ills, Gaël Giraud and Felwine Sarr call for an inner work, which opens to otherness and dialogue, to the capacity of welcoming, which they erect as the foundation of humanity.
