The term "human economics" has been used within economic theory to reposition the discipline as a human and social science, but with limited success. While great economists have always considered human nature, it has been largely neglected in modern economics. This book explores the potential of a human economics, arguing that the complexity and peculiarities of human nature should be central to the study of economics. Complex economic phenomena are subject to laws and limits that reveal their internal order despite the apparent randomness and unpredictability. The book embraces the contributions of thinkers and economists who have tried to fully consider human nature and society within their biological environment. From these solid foundations, the book introduces a different worldview, offers an analysis of socio-economic paradigms, and develops an alternative theoretical framework. Using a transdisciplinary methodology, the book investigates human nature, interactions, and systems up to the macroeconomic cyclical development of the capitalist system. Future perspectives and issues facing modern economies, including environmental sustainability, globalization, and socio-political challenges, are also discussed. This book makes an original contribution to the literature on retooling economic discipline and provides valuable food for thought for scholarly readers while remaining accessible to graduates studying mainstream economics.
