Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterAcademic

Abstract

This final chapter reflects on all contributions in the volume, replying to critical questions brought up in the overall discussion, including the possible restriction an anthropological model may have on human freedom, the relationship between Homo economicus and Homo amans, the nature of love, the danger of committing a naturalistic fallacy, and the need for a theory of change. Revisiting the discussion paper, it refines the Homo amans model and points to new directions of study.
