Age of Economics

About

Who we are
We are an independent group of citizens from different parts of the world with different cultural and professional backgrounds. We are artists, philosopers, designers, web specialists and economists.

Why we are doing this
What unites us is that we are concerned about the status and the development of our beautiful planet. We see an amazing potential in our species, at the same time a lot of difficulties.

Age of Economics
In 2020 we started a web based project and asked 8 fundamental questions about economics and the capitalist civilization to a group of diverse global thinkers. 53 weeks, 53 interviews. Now we want to continue this project with a new series of interviews focused on economics and ecology.
