Modern finance science is profoundly broken and damaging, morally and culturally. It has no choice but to change its theory and pedagogy – but the question is how and in what ways? We urgently need to see the world from a very different, kinder, gentler and more caring paradigm. In truth, the planet is bio-diverse, and so is society, with a huge tapestry of faiths, customs, beliefs and practices in finance. A holistic approach is urgently needed. This book builds a new un-anthropocentric moral and sustainable finance from the ground up, helping students, professionals and scientists to reconstruct the knowledge and connect it to indigenous beliefs and timeless wisdom. An interdisciplinary, nontechnical approach is adopted. Respect for all living beings, the protection of forests, soil and soul, and the importance of trust, culture and relationships are critical to building harmonious communities. Examples and techniques to re-engineer finance science are offered throughout the book.
