Welcome to the ubuntu-economics blog!

This blog is for sharing my thoughts, views and believes on the subject of economics. Why ubuntu? Well it is very much an appropriate title given my views about what economics as a study into society's survival should be.

Ubuntu resonates very much with issues of justice, fairness, transparency, honesty, etc. Has anyone asked themselves about the nature of economics being taught at institutions of learning (i.e., starting at secondary school!) and reported in the media - does the subject address the concept of ubuntu as well as aligning itself to the issues of survival? Can the lives of the society be bettered given what is being taught and advocated out there? Is the subject meant to address issues that are "important" to the chosen few? The questions are many - and please share yours!

The blog is aimed at addressing this issues from the perspective of the type of economics that addresses what ubuntu speaks to.

Please join me as I share with you my thoughts and views on ubuntu economics - A BETTER LIFE IS POSSIBLE!!!
