This volume establishes the historical, intellectual, and ontological foundations of Generative Relational Economics (GRE). It begins by examining the historical conditions through which modern economic objects, subjects, institutions, categories, and forms of scarcity became constituted and analytically intelligible. Economic concepts are therefore approached as historically situated formations rather than as context-independent primitives.
The volume subsequently reconstructs a broad intellectual genealogy relevant to GRE, including traditions concerned with relation, process, emergence, social facts, subject formation, value, political economy, institutions, capabilities, care, commons, evolutionary and ecological economics, complexity, networks, dynamical systems, fields, information, computation, and formal representation. These traditions are placed in dialogue without presuming their theoretical equivalence.
The volume then develops GRE as a distinct but open research programme and introduces its foundational ontological architecture. Ultimate ontological reality remains suspended rather than conclusively specified. Analytical attention is instead directed toward relational reality, in which historically constituted and sufficiently stable relational beings and structures can acquire causal and generative efficacy, and manifestation reality, through which such structures become contextually presented, perceived, represented, interpreted, and acted upon.
These foundations provide the conceptual basis for the epistemological, methodological, and substantive economic analyses developed in subsequent volumes. GRE is presented throughout as a revisable programme rather than a closed metaphysical or economic system.

About the Author
Wanhong HUANG is an independent scholar working at the intersection of philosophy, the theory of relations, economics, and the formal modeling of social dynamics. He is the founder of Serendip Commons Society and the author of the framework of Generative Relational Being, which reconceives justice and governance in terms of the conditions under which relations remain generative. He develops that framework with the tools of dynamical systems theory, group theory, and axiomatic construction alongside those of philosophy.
He holds a Master's degree from the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology at the University of Tokyo, with prior research in computational neuroscience. His background spans computational science, engineering, the humanities, and literature, and his work moves between Chinese, Japanese, and English.
Philosophy of Intimacy and the Theory of Justice is his ongoing series on the normative structure of close relations.

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
