plan on reading it in the future, but right now it's too heavy and dense a topic that i struggle to comprehend the arguments.

Tim Jackson schreibt wissenschaftlich fundiert und doch sehr verständlich über sehr komplexe wirtschaftliche Themen. Ee zeigt deutlich auf, dass unser Gesellschaftssystem und alle Anreize dieses System die Menschheit in die komplett falsche Richtung treiben. Auch einige Lösungsansätze beschreibt Jackson.

"It's possible to breathe more deeply. To spend more time with our family and friends. To volunteer in the community. It's possible to be more creative. To be more charitable. To be kinder to each other. It's possible to engage in totally random acts of unwarranted kindness.
People do all of these things. And strangely, all of them have been shown to have beneficial impacts on wellbeing. They cost nothing. They contribute nothing to the GDP. They have nothing to do with output or efficiency. They have everything to do with prosperity."
