Exploring the emerging field of socio-economics, these essays aim to integrate neoclassical economic theories with insights from other social sciences to enhance understanding of economic behavior and societal values. While the new approach may sacrifice some mathematical elegance, it offers a broader perspective on human motivations and ethical considerations. The essays include reflections on alternative lifestyles that prioritize well-being over consumerism, highlighting the psychological and social implications of this shift in values, amidst the dominance of capitalism.
