A "gung-ho" approach towards sophic economy

The object of this study has been the Sophic Economy of Sergei Bulgakov – an alternative and valuable philosophicaleconomic doctrine. At the beginning, facts-examples have been identified in a contemporary, social and purposely localized context (contemporary Italian society), demonstrating a certain potential sensibility towards the idea of Sophic Economy. Then, Bulgakov’s thought has been expounded with a purposeful tone instead of the critical-purposeful frame originally used by Bulgakov himself in the volume Philosophy of Economy: the world as household. The quality of the examined content has raised the simple question, What about the dynamics of the diffusion of ideas like these? Employing what I call the "gung-ho" approach – the researcher’s imagination as a historical technique method that does not integrate the facts of the past but places them in a sort of laboratory-simulative environment model – the idea of Sophic Economy has been inserted in NetLogo’s Spreading Utopian Ideas Model. The popularization of an alternative philosophical doctrine and the proposal-experiment of an original method of historical research in Economics have been the main results of the present study
