Learning New Ways of Economic Governance

The HOPE Economics Papers work from three layers of perspective that allow for both practical grounding and expansive thinking:

1.  Basic – The conventional, widely accepted understanding of a field (e.g., psychology, health, politics, economics).

2. Para – The otherworldly, fringe, or alternative aspects that operate outside mainstream recognition but still influence the system.

3. Meta – The overarching, structural, or higher order principles that frame the entire system, potentially revealing unseen connections and emergent properties.

This new approach serves as a foundational model for the HOPE Investigations, help categorise new ideas and generate a structured way to explore potential new paradigms.

Basic Economics is the study of how individuals, businesses, and governments allocate resources to satisfy needs and wants. It focuses on production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. Key areas include:

• Supply and Demand – The fundamental forces that determine prices in a market economy.
• Microeconomics – The study of individual and business decision-making, including consumer behavior and market structures.
• Macroeconomics – The analysis of large-scale economic factors, such as national income, inflation, unemployment, and economic growth.
• Economic Systems – Different models of organizing economies, including capitalism, socialism, and mixed economies.
• Money & Banking – The role of currency, financial institutions, and credit in economic transactions.
• Trade & Globalization – How countries exchange goods and services, forming interconnected economies.

At its core, economics seeks to understand how resources are managed, wealth is created, and how policies impact economic stability and growth

Paraeconomics – Economic systems that operate outside traditional models (e.g., energy-based currencies, post-scarcity societies, barter networks in inter-dimensional trade).

Metaeconomics – The study of the fundamental principles behind economies, looking at how value, exchange, and resources function across different realities or states of existence (e.g., economies based on thought energy, course and effect transactions on the overarching system, or future quantum trade models).
