Economics as if human livelihoods mattered

[chris macrae]

Given the Keynsian view (last 3 pages of General Theory) that economics is increasingly the only way futures of the world are designed. one would pray that economists agree with him that their main job is to optimalise how 7 billion being livelihoods thrive-_most central to all of this is goodwill valuation that empowers end of poverty (defined as eg one in 3 children being born into communities where there chances of growing their potential is next to zero- why eg due to war, bad health systems, lack of access to smart education, communities not lovingly helping out children where for whatever reasons parents cant wholly sustain the child, food , water , energy security bottom-up because that's where access is life critical

In this pro-youth and pro-jobs view of inter-generational economics, the value exchange coordinates that are most valuable to empower all 7 billion beings voices are 1 optimalising human livelihoods (an educational challenge that Norman Macrae mapped as relatively simple for "death of distance" technology to be valued and celebrated around 10 optimising how we design systems spinning round social-investment .Unfortunately the Wall Street (and Western) professions paid the most to steward globalisation since 1984 didnt agree with this at all- instead of trying to .design systems to include the 3 halves of the world - youth, women, poorest- with less than 10% of voice over their future in the industrial age, they designed rules sponsored by the 1% biggest governments, quarterly profit-takers and charities concerned with fund-raising images not ghe deep empowerment work from the poorest village up.... This much is utterly clear from such sources as: first chapter of yunus social business book 2008 brooking report in unseen wealth year 2000 -if we cant get hold of these and really need them - mail [e-mail] and I will see if i can laser you relevant parts to whatever is the system collaspsing problem you most wish to channge

.Unfortunatly the professions paid the most to steward glonalisation since 1984 didnt agree with this at all- instead of trying to .design systems to include the 3 halves of the world - yputh, women, poorest- with less than 10% of voice over their future in the industrial age, they designed rules sponsored by the 1% biggest goverments, quarterly profit-takers and chraitioes concerned with fund-raising images not gthe deep empowerment work from the pooerst vilage up....
