(1/9) I published a paper on Recognising Non-Market Public Value. It focuses on care, contribution, and what economic institutions have kept invisible so far, offering a path to rebuild fiscal systems around what matters most.

Just published: Taxing Economic and Exclusive Rights and Privileges.

This counter-cyclical tax framework targets structural power (economic and exlusive rights and privileges) instead of production, consumption and transactions.

Too often, what counts as value in the economy is the opposite of what sustains us.
Pollution boosts GDP.
Burnout drives productivity.
Unpaid care, ecological work, and civic life go unseen.

We need a new theory of value.
