Current demographic studies are based on the Malthusian principle of population, which makes a direct extrapolation of the natural law of population of the animal kingdom to the human system. This is in contrast to Marx's understanding of population, for whom population is determined by...

Financial signals' abrupt spectral changes in temporal scale correspond to the perception bias on risk which is a well-known epistemologically decision-making factor in behavioral finance research. In this paper, we explored the epistemological role of S&P 500 signal's non-stationarity on...

By framing development as an emergent property of collective consciousness, this paper provides a fresh epistemological lens to address local and global common challenges, such as inequality, social, cultural, and ecological degradation, and resource management through commoning. The paper...

This essay examines financial economics not just as a technical science of analysis, but as a value-influenced discourse composed of philosophical assumptions and learned social values. The subject matter tends to present itself as objective and value-free, even though the dominant models...

The main focus of this paper is to propose a new epistemological framework that addresses challenges in the concept of development. Based on the philosophy of mind and consciousness, this framework suggests a practical approach supported by recent scientific findings in different disciplines,...

This entry discusses the concept of "systemism", elaborates how it implicitly underpinned most seminal works of evolutionary-institutional economics, and explains how future research would benefit from making the systemist nature of evolutionary economics more explicit. More precisely, the paper...

This article argues that the considerable socio-economic and political challenges posed by the polycrisis can be better understood through the application of qualitative methods in economic research as quantitative methods fall short in this context. We argue that the integration of qualitative...

This book presents an innovative African philosophical response to coloniality and the attendant epistemicide of Africa’s knowledge systems, drawing on Igbo thinking. This book argues that theorizing modernity requires a critical conversation between African and Western scholarship, in order...

Although there is now a substantial body of literature exploring the effects of language diversity in international management contexts, little attention has been paid to the ethical dimensions of language diversity at work. This conceptual paper draws on the concept of epistemic injustice in...

At its core, the discussion on the micro-macro link in heterodox economics is concerned with the correct treatment of aggregates and aggregation in social theory. In this chapter we survey heterodox approaches to the micro-macro link with a focus on shared understandings and convictions that...
