Brilliant, to say the least... 5 postulates and 1 fundamental value principle as basis for the type of economics we would like to see in the world by Manfred Max-Neef: "1. Economics is to serve the people and not the people to serve the economy. 2. Development is about people and not about objects. 3. Growth is not the same as development and development does not necessarily require growth. 4. No economics is possible in the absence of ecosystem services. 5. The economy is a subsystem of a larger and finite system: the biosphere, hence permanent growth is impossible. ~ Under no circumstances whatsoever should economics be above the reverence for life." - Manfred Max-Neef
