Through a dialogue-based format, the author dismantles the myths of unlimited growth and proposes a new way of understanding our common home, the *oikos*. The reader will find a critical and accessible analysis that connects the environmental crisis with the foundations of mainstream economic thought, offering keys to building a more sustainable society that is conscious of the planet's limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is structured as a series of dialogues that explore the ecological crisis from its conceptual roots. Naredo starts from the etymology of the word \"economy\" (from the Greek *oikos*, house, and *nomos*, management) to question why modern economic discipline has ignored its link to nature. Throughout the work, topics such as the unsustainability of the current growth model, the fallacy of externalizing environmental costs, and the need to integrate biophysical limits into economic thinking are analyzed. The author defends a holistic vision that reconciles economics with ecology, proposing a paradigm shift towards responsible resource management and an ethics of caring for the environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of the unlimited economic growth model and its ecological consequences.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRevision of the philosophical and conceptual foundations of modern economics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between ecological economics, environmental policy, and sustainability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe need for a new ethics based on the responsible management of natural resources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis of environmentalist thought as an ideological alternative to developmentalism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in the ecological crisis, critical economics, and environmental thought.
