Ethics Meaning and Market Society

<p>This book explores the underlying causes of the pervasive dominance of ‘unethics’ in contemporary affairs in economics business and society. It is argued that the state of unethics is related to the overexpansion of market and market values in all spheres of social life and human activities. A correlate of this development is the emergence of an extremely individualistic materialistic and narcissistic mind-set that dictates the decisions and behavior of people and organizations. </p><p>The author argues that art can help to overcome the dominant market metaphysics of our age as genuine art creates models of 'poetic dwelling' which can generate non-linear progressive change that opens up a larger playing field for ethics. Aesthetics and ethics go hand in hand. Ethical action is not just right for its own sake but makes the world a richer livable and more beautiful place.</p><p>Ethics Meaning and Market Society will be of interest to students at an advanced level academics researchers and professionals. It addresses the topics with regard to ethics in economics business and society in a contemporary context.</p>
