DESCRIPTION

A Philosophical Focus on Workplace Health and Social Sustainability
This visionary book provides a philosophical framework for pluralistic economics, prioritising workplace health and social sustainability over profits. Ulf Johanson and Emmanuel Aboagye demonstrate that narrow economic gazes have consistently shaped how value is calculated, frequently obscuring profound moral consequences.
This visionary book provides a philosophical framework for pluralistic economics, prioritising workplace health and social sustainability over profits. Ulf Johanson and Emmanuel Aboagye demonstrate that narrow economic gazes have consistently shaped how value is calculated, frequently obscuring profound moral consequences.



Johanson and Aboagye propose that economics too often focuses on tools for calculation and accounting, leading to excessive consumption and a negative impact on occupational health and safety. Drawing on examples from diverse work environments, they argue that constant reflection on ethical principles and societal norms must be present when economic decisions are made. Chapters advocate for a new democratic economic model which aims to build a world where the economy serves humanity, enabling people to live with less fear and uncertainty.



Pluralistic Economics is a prescient resource for scholars and students of business and management, finance and economics. Governance policymakers and business managers will also benefit from its human-focused insights and practical suggestions for improved workplace dynamics.
