Responsible Entrepreneurship
Economics and Politics
On our finite planet economic growth faces increasing constraints. We need to refocus the entrepreneurial spirit on the primacy of service and responsibility, for both people and planet. There is a case for disbanding corporations that are putting profits before social benefit, and that doing more harm than good environmentally.
Where can the profit motive help and where does it harm? How can we ensure that fair rather than maximum profits become the primary focus of business? What are the best ownership models for large enterprises? Should parts of society become commerce-free? How can corporate duties and responsibilities become transparent and enforceable? What should be the limits and consequences of personal liability? How can advertising best be regulated?
