On Civilizing Capitalism

Más información sobre el libro

Modern political, economic, and moral theories are critiqued for being rooted in outdated 17th-century intuitive reasoning rather than contemporary scientific insights. Brian Ellis reevaluates the founding of the United Nations and post-war policies, arguing that they reflected a philosophy aligned with scientific realism. He challenges established thinkers like Rawls and Nozick, advocating for a philosophy focused on societal functionality and evidence-based economics, which recognizes historical differences among societies and their unique development paths.
