Tyranny of Merit What's Become of the Common Good?
Sandel, Michael J
Tyranny of Merit What's Become of the Common Good? - London Penguin Books 2021 - 272
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.
