★內容介紹:
The conference serves as a catalyst for new research projects and economic initiatives that promote personal responsibility, fairness, cooperation and compassion.
Altruism and Compassion in Economic Systems traces the roots of altruism, the biological components of compassion, experiments in trust and the potential of economics based less on ‘profiting me’ and more on ‘helping you’. An economic system that pays more attention to the importance of human interactions will lead to more cooperation, less greed and greater happiness.
At the heart of this diologue is the understanding that altruism and compassion are integral to the realization of a society aligned to the benefit of all its members.
