자본주의 최고가치인 "돈"에 얽힌 경제윤리와 정의에 대하여 마이클 샌델의 날카로운 논리를 만나볼 수 있습니다 !
Should we pay children to read books, or to get good grades? Should we put a price on human life, to decide how much pollution to allow? Is it ethical to pay people to test risky new drugs, or to donate their organs? What about hiring mercenaries to fight our wars; outsourcing inmates to for-profit prisons; auctioning admission to elite universities; or selling citizenship to immigrants willing to pay?
In What Money Can’t Buy, Michael J. Sandel takes up one of the biggest ethical questions of our time: Isn’t there something wrong with a world in which everything is up for sale? If so, how can we prevent market values from reaching into spheres of life where they don’t belong? What are the moral limits of markets?
In recent decades, market values have crowded out non-market norms in almost every aspect of life?medicine, education, government, law, art, sports, even family life and personal relations. Without quite realizing it, Sandel argues, we have drifted from having a market economy to being a market society.
In Justice, an international bestseller, Sandel showed himself a master at illuminating, with clarity and verve, the hard moral questions we confront in our everyday lives. Now, in What Money Can’t Buy, he provokes a debate that’s been missing in our market-driven age: What is the proper role of markets in a democratic society, and how can we protect the moral and civic goods that markets do not honor and money cannot buy?
