dc.descriptionThis brief examines the critical blind spot in modern policy-making by addressing the fundamental human economic system that causes global ecological and social challenges. The document outlines how the dominant conventional discourse and its growth-first objectives subvert international environmental agreements, violate planetary boundaries, and intensify social inequality. By evaluating alternative frameworks like ecological macroeconomics and metrics such as gross national happiness and ecological footprints, the text highlights the availability of technical knowledge required to shift toward sustainable, well-being-first systems.en
