Decolonising economics means questioning where its ideas came from—and imagining new ones

Decolonising economics involves critically examining the historical origins of economic thought and imagining new models. The movement focuses on challenging Eurocentric economic ideas that have long dominated the discipline.

In addition to critiquing traditional frameworks, the approach emphasizes highlighting economic perspectives and theories originating from the Global South. By doing so, proponents aim to build alternative economic models that reflect a more diverse global reality.
