Author Information

Andri W. Stahel has graduated in economics, in public administration, has a master's degree in international economics, and holds a PhD in social sciences. Stahel has been teaching and researching for over 30 years in ecological economics, associative economics, development studies, social phenomenology, complexity theory, Goethean Science, epistemology, and post-normal science. Currently, he is affiliated with the Associative Economy Institute (ELO), Brazil. During this time, he developed a unique, living, and holistic perspective into the economic process, which he termed regenerative oikonomics. Lately, he has been writing about and promoting his phenomenological, transdisciplinary, and holistic understanding to offer a living and real-world perspective of economic life to a larger audience. This perspective provides a much-needed alternative to the standard model-based and reductionist approach to the economy found in mainstream economics.
