Achtsamkeit und Nachhaltigkeit sind zu Modebegriffen geworden. Sie sind aber ebenso zentrale Pfeiler der aktuellen Suffizienz-Bewegung und der jahrtausendealten Lehre des Buddha. Mit Niko Paech und Manfred Folkers loten zwei Experten aus, welche Potenziale die beiden Denkrichtungen mitbringen, um unseren zerstörerischen Wachstumspfad zu verlassen. Über eine provokante Abrechnung mit den Wachstumstreibern kapitalistischen Wirtschaftens und das Besinnen auf die Tugenden eines konsumbefreiten Lebens entwickeln sie eine "Kultur des Genug".

"Dass ich den Dieselmotor erfunden habe, ist schön und gut. Aber meine Hauptleistung ist, dass ich die soziale Frage gelöst habe." Jeder kennt Rudolf Diesel (1858 - 1913) als Erfinder des gleichnamigen Motors.

Esiste uno strumento in grado di misurare la felicità? Il denaro è ancora un elemento imprescindibile del benessere di un individuo e di una nazione? Perché il livello del Pil - il famigerato prodotto interno lordo da cui dipendono le nostri sorti - è così importante? È davvero un indicatore affidabile oppure aveva ragione Bob Kennedy quando, in un famoso discorso tenuto nel 1968 alla Kansas University, fece notare che il Pil "mette nel conto le serrature speciali per le nostre porte di casa e le prigioni per coloro che cercano di forzarle"?

"Unto this last" est un essai de John Ruskin de 1860, qui critique de l'économie capitaliste du 18e et 19e siècle, et est généralement considéré comme étant un précurseur de l'économie sociale. Ce texte fut violemment critiqué après sa publication. C'est en 1904, en Afrique du Sud, que Gandhi lit pour la première fois ce texte, qui aura une influence énorme sur ses convictions. En 1908, il adapte le texte de Ruskin en gujarati, lui donnant alors le titre de "Sarvodaya", le bien-être de chacun, qui devint aussi le nom de sa philosophie.

Ogni comunità ha bisogno di giustificare le proprie disuguaglianze: l'uomo deve trovare le ragioni di queste disparità per non rischiare di vedere crollare l'intero edificio politico e sociale. In questa chiave, anche molte ideologie del passato non appaiono più così irragionevoli, se paragonate al nostro presente. Conoscere la molteplicità delle traiettorie e delle biforcazioni della storia può infatti aiutarci a interrogare le fondamenta delle nostre istituzioni e a intuire le loro trasformazioni.

Kaum eine Wirtschaft steckt die Pandemie so gut weg wie die deutsche, noch immer ist sie im internationalen Vergleich erfolgreich.

Die Digitalisierung, die Perspektiven der Schlüsselindustrie Automobil oder die Dekarbonisierung der Wirtschaft generell: Vielen Unternehmen fehlt es an eigenen Ideen, wie eine nachhaltige Wertschöpfung aussehen könnte.

Financial crises are often blamed on unforeseeable events, the unforgiving nature of capital markets, or just plain bad luck. Too Smart for Our Own Good argues that these crises are caused by certain alluring investment strategies that promise both high returns and safety of capital. In other words, the severe and widespread crises we have suffered in recent decades were not perfect storms. Instead, they were made by us. By understanding how and why this is so, we may be able to avoid or ameliorate future crises - and maybe even anticipate them.

The downfall of Bo Xilai in China was more than a darkly thrilling mystery. It revealed a cataclysmic internal power struggle between Communist Party factions, one that reached all the way to China’s new president Xi Jinping. The scandalous story of the corruption of the Bo Xilai family - the murder of British businessman Neil Heywood; Bo’s secret lovers; the secret maneuverings of Bo’s supporters; the hasty trial and sentencing of Gu Kailai, Bo’s wife - was just the first rumble of a seismic power struggle that continues to rock the very foundation of China’s all-powerful Communist Party.

Free-market economists often have noted that there are winners and losers in a competitive capitalist world. The question of how to deal with the difficult real-life consequences faced by the losers, however, has largely been ignored. Populist politicians have tried repeatedly to address the issue by creating walls - of both the physical and economic kinds - to insulate communities and keep competition at bay. Economist Glenn Hubbard argues that because they delay needed adaptations to the ever-changing world, walls are essentially backward-looking and ultimately destined to fail.

The Social Currency addresses the idea that money is a social construct, and therefore so is poverty.
