The article focuses on Tim Jackson’s book *The Care Economy*, which critiques current socioeconomic systems for prioritizing wealth accumulation over health and well-being. Jackson uses personal injury experiences and travelogue-style narratives to argue that prosperity should be measured by care and health rather than productivity and capital. He highlights the gendered nature of caregiving, referencing women economists who explore these disparities, and calls for dismantling patriarchal structures that undermine care and health. Jackson proposes a new economic paradigm centered on care, offering guiding principles that link care to freedom, postgrowth economics, and climate action. [Extracted from the article]
