Acerca de esta escucha

Brought to you by Penguin.

These 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 polarised 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.

This is the 4th books I read following Justice What is the right thing to do?, what money can’t buy? and Public Philosophy and this book by Mr. Sandel. When we look back in the past and it’s become even more evident now that society seem to praise on the more educated and success is measure on the level of wealth and opportunities to govern the less unfortunate and low income, in which would create even more inequality and income gap, to put Meritocracy in perspectives, we all need to understand the limit of merit system and how we look at our success that is suggested in this book, but in term of practical, it would be other challenging !

Interesting point

If only everyone could read this book, the world would have a chance of organising itself in a fair fairer and just way. Brilliant in every way:

So important for our time of tumult

I was today years old when I realized that my thoughts and beliefs about the systems of merit were fundamentally flawed. This book not only explains why, but it gives practical recommendations for what we can do to rectify the unintended consequences of these systems. A fascinating read

Profoundly enlightening

A great look on our moral.
It's focused on USA society but it can apply to most of the world.

Some thoughts we should all have

Brilliant ideas to improve mankind and society. Even though it focuses on American society, the same principles apply to make other societies more humane and give their less favored members the opportunity of a happier life.

Great book!

thought provoking and inspiring

Great analysis of the predicament most developed societies have landed. I find my own actions hugely influenced by the meritocratic bias. I never questioned it, I was on the receiving / winning side of that reality. It is really worth reconsidering the whole meritocratic construct. But, I am afraid not much of the criticism would ever be adopted, the rich and powerful will have too much too lose.

Before revolution

Encontrei várias objeções e justificativas para o fracasso do homem americano médio. Nenhuma proposta de solução.
Este discurso vindo em uma época em que a igualdade entre as pessoas é a maior da história do país me parece hipocrisia e um avalao retrocesso.

Só fala o óbvio.
