Economic Aspects
Work as yoga, exchange, production, sustenance, innovation, and alternatives to profit-driven systems.
What kind of economy can serve a higher human future?
This section investigates Auroville’s ongoing struggle to create an economy aligned with its ideals. Beyond profit and growth, it asks harder questions: How is work valued? How is abundance shared? What replaces ownership, competition, and accumulation?
These essays explore Pour Tous, production units, services, innovation, resource mobilisation, and the spiritual dimension of work—karmayoga. They examine where current economic models clash with Auroville’s vision, and where new forms are trying to emerge.
An economy is never neutral. It always reflects what a society truly values.
