Thermodynamic Economics
Thermodynamic Economics
Definition
An economic framework viewing civilization as a system of energy transformation, information exchange, and entropy management.
Inclusionist Perspective
Economic systems are fundamentally coordination systems for organizing energy, information, labor, and participation.
Core Principle
Value emerges through transformations that reduce uncertainty and increase adaptive capacity within connected systems.
Relationships
Inclusionist Hypothesis
Inclusive systems improve thermodynamic efficiency by increasing coordination capacity and reducing systemic friction.
Questions
- Is economic value fundamentally energetic?
- Can entropy explain civilizational decline?
- Are markets information-processing systems?
- Can inclusion reduce systemic waste?
