Compassion in Economics


Mind & Life International - Beautiful concept. E.O.Wilson's call for consilience finally at works.

"A public dialogue between Economics, Neuroscience and Contemplative Sciences
The global financial crisis shows just how vulnerable our economic systems are to greed and the ramifications of human decisions. The Mind & Life XX conference focuses on exploring economic systems that reward not only individuals but our global societies.
Over five sessions they will explore how economic decisions are made as well as discuss new economic systems that reward fairness and co-operation while at the same time addressing the most urgent societal and environmental issues."

I couldn't find the video of the event yet.
