Bruckner Pascal

Summary

Pascal Bruckner: The Misery of Welfare

Market Religion and its Enemies

It is a real rarity to read a text about economics from such a passionate and witty pen: in The Misery of Welfare through ten chapters and twelve encadres, framed short essays, Pascal Bruckner pointed out almost all of our Western insanities. Discussing globalization, the relationship between the American and European culture of work and creation, capitalism and the relationship to developing countries, wealth, poverty, greed and avarice, the criticism of the destructive effect of economism stands out as the basic guiding thought. Bruckner's coinage is very eloquent: it speaks of the man of extinguished Humanity - reduced to consumer, producer, shareholder, buyer or seller, owner or property; to the "hamster in the wheel", to the "participant in a boring utopia", "incapable of creating a hierarchy of his greed", inhabitants of both the polis and the supermarket.
