The Last Economy: A Guide to the Age of Intelligent Economics

Our dashboards show record profits, while daily life shows a loss of purpose. The gap signals a paradigm collapse. Mostaque argues we have a finite window, the Thousand-Day Window, to choose among three futures: a comfortable cage of Digital Feudalism, a paranoid fortress of the Great Fragmentation, or a living partnership of Human Symbiosis.

The Last Economy is not another warning. It is a build plan for the third future. Drawing from physics, complexity science, and computer science, Mostaque offers a blueprint for systems that treat abundance as a feature and defend human agency at scale. In this world, human worth is no longer tied to economic utility. Value flows from creativity, judgment, and care. The work ahead is a civilization-scale software update that turns this blueprint into code, policy, and culture.
