Welcome

E.F. Schumacher

E.F. Schumacher was an internationally influential economic thinker, viewing things from a systems perspective. His work in economics led him to develop a collection of connected ideas in energy, work, technology, development, organisation and ownership, education, traditional wisdom and religion. E.F. Schumacher's work is about a way of living that is as relevant today as it was in 1973 when his seminal book Small is Beautiful was first published.
