A message from
Evonomics founding editor Robert Kadar:
Hello, and thanks for reading. I believe passionately in the power of new economic thinking to change our world for the better. In the two years since we launched Evonomics, we've been gratified that others like you feel the same. Evonomics attracts hundreds of thousands of readers a month, and reaches millions a week on social media. On average, readers spend five minutes reading each article.
Thanks to generous donations on our site, we've been able to cover our basic costs. Now we're reaching out on Patreon for support to keep Evonomics going, growing, and thriving.
Your pledge will let us expand our budget for advertising and outreach, and support the everyday, week-in and week-out work by me and publisher Steve Roth. Also, we'd really like to add an editorial and marketing assistant and more original content.
We're a small and efficient shop — not the big operation that many people think from looking at the site — so your support goes a long way. An extra $10 in our monthly ad budget will put powerful new economic thinking in front of 20,000 more people, every month. $50 will reach a 100,000 people. Help us spread new economic thinking.
You can read more about Evonomics' vision and mission below, and see some of our most popular and important articles. We'd love it if you could support our plans to reach more people like you, with more world-changing content, over the months and years to come.
Thanks for listening, and thanks for your support.

"The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed, the world is ruled by little else."
—John Maynard Keynes
Change Economics. Change the World.
Economics is broken. It supports and legitimizes a system that impoverishes us all.
Evonomics is a loud and prominent voice for a better way of thinking, a better way of running our economy and our world.A whole host of authoritative voices are challenging the old paradigms, and pointing us toward a thriving, prosperous, just, and sustainable future. Those are the authors gathered together on Evonomics.
Here's a sampling from the hundreds of powerful articles that we've delivered over two years, to millions of readers — from kitchen tables worldwide, to the highest tables of policy and power. We hope you enjoy them.
