Who is Tomáš Sedláček?

Tomáš Sedláček is an economist, but among his interests are conspiracy theories and an increasing attraction to philosophy. Thanks to his book “Economics of Good and Evil,” Tomáš’s name has been mentioned literally worldwide, not only because of his proposal to replace the word economics with “humanomics.” This was followed by a number of other books, articles on his personal blog, and tens of thousands of fans on social media. He currently serves as the chief macroeconomic strategist at ČSOB and was previously an advisor to President Václav Havel. The GDI Institute named him one of the 100 most influential thinkers in the world.
