Incentivising the social economy enterprise model is also key to this new paradigm shift - the focus is never on curbing economic activity, but rather on making it work for more people to generate greater welfare. These could include cooperatives and employee-owned models, right through to certain circular economy models that promote social wellbeing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is an accessible and intriguing text focusing on new left economics, revisiting and modernising Keynesian economic thinking to frame a basis for an economy with a strong social focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Von Brockdorff, Jonathan Spiteri\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1804554030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781804554036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Emerald Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Philip Von Brockdorff","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45064896512255,"sku":"9781804554036","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db450295-5056-4ae2-b6c7-6401d60906fb.jpg?v=1712125190","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-new-left-economics-philip-von-brockdorff-9781804554036","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
