The Economy of Hope by Hirokazu Miyazaki
In The Economy of Hope, hope becomes not only a method of knowledge but also an essential framework for the sociocultural analysis of economic phenomena.
"An important theoretical contribution to the social sciences, religion, philosophy, and critical legal studies, The Economy of Hope is not aiming to be a phenomenology of hope-indeed, it seems consciously to avoid pinning hope down that way-yet the combined essays very clearly lead us to consider the vectors, spaces, and reflexivities of hope as method" * Nancy Ries, Colgate University *
