This document discusses some key flaws in traditional economic theory from a humanistic perspective, including its focus on egoism, materialism, and individualism. Regarding egoism, experimental evidence shows that humans are more benevolent than the self-interested "homo economicus" model. In terms of materialism, most economic outputs today are intangible rather than tangible goods. The document also argues that economics overlooks important human interactions and "relational goods" like relationships, communication, and social connections that are important for well-being and happiness but are non-market in nature. It suggests economics could be improved by taking a more relational perspective that incorporates these interpersonal dimensions of human life.Giuseppe Argiolas: Doing well and doing good

The document discusses achieving business success through a multidimensional perspective. It argues business success can be achieved through economizing and strategizing. Economizing refers to effectively utilizing internal resources like patents, technology, and knowledge. Strategizing involves managing external relationships with clients, suppliers, competitors, and local communities. Knowledge is a key resource, and there are different types like explicit, tacit, and organizational knowledge created through experience, learning from others, and being guided by ideals.Lorna Gold: The EoC: A valid proposal for today's world (economy)?

The document discusses the proposal of an Economy of Communion (EOC) model as a valid response to the challenges of today's global economy. It outlines four converging crises: social inequality, environmental sustainability, governance issues, and jobless growth. It then examines the risks of growing corporate power and influence, including threats to human rights and accountability. The EOC model is presented as bringing integrity, ensuring ethical supply chains, innovation, responding to community needs, profit sharing, anti-corruption, and a vision of equity. Its strengths lie in the power of its example, unity, and commitment to the common good.North America

Primavera started in the mid-1980s as a small business opportunity to help young people from the village through open doors and principles of sharing. It aims to be a concrete expression of God's love for each person who enters it through ethics in selling, giving back by helping struggling small enterprises, and living as entrepreneurs of communion where size does not matter and one helps others rather than blame. Primavera sees providence in seeking credit in time to continue growing as a reciprocating enterprise.
