Krátky popis
A TLS, GUARDIAN AND NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020The new
bestseller from the acclaimed author of Justice and one of the
world's most popular philosophers",Astute, insightful, and
empathetic...A crucial book for this moment", Tara Westover, author
of EducatedThese are dangerous times for democracy. We live in an
age of winners and losers, where the odds are stacked in favour of
the already fortunate. Stalled social mobility and entrenched
inequality give the lie to the promise that ",you can make it if
you try",.And the consequence is a brew of anger and frustration
that has fuelled populist protest, with the triumph of Brexit and
election of Donald Trump. Michael J. Sandel argues that to overcome
the polarized politics of our time, we must rethink the attitudes
toward success and failure that have accompanied globalisation and
rising inequality.Sandel highlights the hubris a meritocracy
generates among the winners and the harsh judgement it imposes on
those left behind. He offers an alternative way of thinking about
success - more attentive to the role of luck in human affairs, more
conducive to an ethic of humility, and more hospitable to a
politics of the common good.
