How to make the world better and more beautiful by making economics better and beautiful
World in Chaos and Despair: The Healing Power of Poetry
Economics Needs a New Story and New Storytellers
I look forward to a day when students of economics and their teachers are required to study creativity and be inspired by the work of artists, poets, mystics, musicians, sculptors, philosophers, and peacemakers, and thus, bring meaning and purpose into the study of economics. I dream of a time when economic textbooks, as well as addressing how we may manage the economy, would also speak of the need for beauty, intimacy, kindness, empathy, cooperation, enoughness, friendship, fairness, community and love, on who and what we are.
In all, I dream of a day when economics becomes the enabler and the economists as the empowerers of the good life and the good society.
‘We should look beyond economics and open our eyes to beauty.’- Fiona Reynolds, Former Master of Emmanuel College, Cambridge and Director-General of the National Trust.
