Synopsis

Ours is indeed becoming a brave new world, and not all of the neoclassical tenets, particularly in economics, will continue to apply, according to Ruggles (social science, York U.). He holds that there will be a new paradigm of economics, one that incorporates a holistic, dynamic form of analysis. Instrumental in this change will be the rise of a new elite information class which will expect, and get, a new theory of value, including the value of a planet stretched beyond its capacity as a perpetual source of raw material and as a dumping ground.
