We discuss an alternative way to measure the success or otherwise of an economy. ...One of the leading thinkers on the Genuine Progress Indicator joins us from Australia to talk about an alternative and common-sense way to know what is actually good for us.
Reform of the measurement of economic success is needed. The use of GDP “is based on a faulty application of economics” because it measures the flow of money, not the stock of national assets. Introducing natural capital into national accounting systems would be a critical step said says Prof Sir Partha Dasgupta in a review commissioned by the UK Treasury in 2021.Show More

Gerry explains that ...he has written this book to encourage a more nuanced conversation, taking into account our history and the context of a decaying democracy in Westminster.
