Maggiori informazioni sul libro
A Nobel Peace Prize winner and bestselling author presents a vision for a new economic system aimed at saving humanity and the planet. Muhammad Yunus, known for creating microcredit and social business, argues that the current capitalist model is failing, leading to inequality, unemployment, and environmental harm. He advocates for an economic system that harnesses altruism as a powerful force alongside self-interest. This vision is not just theoretical; in recent years, many individuals and organizations have embraced Yunus's ideas, launching innovative social businesses focused on human needs rather than wealth accumulation. Examples include providing solar energy to homes in Bangladesh, transforming unemployed youth into entrepreneurs, financing female-owned businesses in the U.S., and offering essential services to the rural poor in France. In this work, Yunus outlines the emerging civilization shaped by these economic experiments, detailing how major companies like McCain and Renault are engaging with this new model through social action initiatives. He also discusses innovative financial tools supporting social businesses and the necessary legal changes to foster further socially-driven innovations. Yunus invites young people, business leaders, and citizens to join this movement and help create a better world.
