A Word From the Editors: Humanism in the Economy. Introduction to the Special Issue “Humanistic Economy”

Abstract

The special issue “Humanistic Economy” is a collection of articles which are a response to the increasingly frequent voices, for contemporary economics to be treated not only as a set of economic notions, but as a science, where human beings and their happiness are the main focus. The authors suggest the use of solutions from the area of psychology, sociology or cultural studies in economics, that allows to consider economics as a humanities science. This special issue has 13 articles that will be published in the next two issues of “Studia Humana,” Issue 2 and Issue 3.
