Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist

By Kate RaworthHow would you explain 21st century economics in just a minute? I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the world’s best stop-motion animators to bring new economic thinking to life on screen. Please feel free to show them in the classroom, in workshops, in public talks, and to share them widely on social media. And if you’d like to help translate them into as many languages as possible, join the team.

1. Change the Goal

From GDP to the Doughnut

2. Tell a New Story – NEW !!

From the neoliberal narrative to a story fit for our times

3. Nurture Human Nature

From rational economic man to social adaptable humans

4. Get Savvy with Systems

From mechanical equilibrium to dynamic complexity

5. Design to Distribute – NEW

From ‘growth will even it up again’ to distributive by design

6. Create to Regenerate

From ‘growth will clean it up again’ to regenerative by design

7. Be Agnostic about Growth – COMING SOON

From growth addicted to growth agnostic

And now…It’s Time for Planetary Economics
