Abstract

Ecological economics was one of the first of a number of scientific communities to develop transdisciplinary understandings of the sustainability challenges faced by society. As a field with economics in its name, ecological economics differs from the other communities and should face the particular task of contributing to the development of a new economics. For economics to promote sustainability transitions, it is not enough to call for more pluralism. A new basic structure of economic knowledge should be developed in order to provide the foundation for a sustainability transition to Econ 101. This paper argues that the performativity of economics needs to change and proposes a way of structuring Econ 101.
