Abstract: Abstract This chapter introduces a comparative assessment of neoclassical, ecological, and feminist economics of consumption and production from the perspectives of sustainability, their conceptions of well-being, and their treatments of institutions and questions of political economy. It seeks to integrate in the ecological model of the economy, which explicitly considers the relationship between the economic and environmental systems, and the feminist analysis of the relationship between social provisioning and the economic system. The resulting framework builds on the work of feminist ecological economists to incorporate care provisioning into a sustainable economywide model.
