Here is a revised and extended version of a paper posted here last May: Getting Started on the Economy. More work needs doing on it but it
- presents the problem for the regional economy in terms of two flawed assumptions endless growth and global competitiveness;
- suggests some alternative guiding principles;
- suggests some ways in which we can promote them.
Do comment so we can develop the thinking here.
It can be read in conjunction with the Green Deal for the Manchester-Mersey Bioregion paper and Sustainability: Utopian and Scientific.
