Our economy is many things: extractive, inequitable, unsustainable. An emerging field, moral economics seeks to redefine what economies can be if they are centered on flourishing, equity, sustainability, and interconnection. Moral economics theories go by many names; Conscious Capitalism, Regenerative Capitalism, Catalytic Capital, Collaborative Ownership, Reparations Finance, Pre-Distribution, Impact Investing, and more.
