See all- [Book Club] The Tyranny of Merit: What’s Become of the Common Good?창신단길 카페, Seoul
"The notion that we deserve the rewards the market bestows on us is a claim that we are entitled to our advantages in life—and that those who struggle must deserve their fate."
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". Through The Tyranny of Merit, Michael Sandel challenges the modern meritocratic ideal, exposing how it deepens inequality, erodes social solidarity, and fosters a culture of hubris among the successful.
I look forward to exploring this book with you all! I believe the topics here are relevant now more than ever and strength can come from discussions together!
