Leer libros electronicos The Tyranny of Merit: Why
the Promise of Moving Up Is Pulling America Apart
 
A world-famous political philosopher, and the
bestselling author of Justice, reveals the driving force
behind the resurgence of populism: the tyranny of the
meritocracy and the resentments it produces.Our
politics are fraught with rancor and resentment.
Decades of rising inequality and stalled mobility have
fueled a populist revolt against elites. But while the
pundits focus on wages and jobs, they are missing a big
part of the story: social esteem, and the broader
moral dimensions of our current crisis.In recent
decades, mainstream politicians across the aisle--from
Reagan to Obama--have offered a rhetoric of rising:
everyone should be given an equal chance to get ahead.
 
But the relentless focus on "equal opportunity" ignores
the morally corrosive attitudes that even a fair
meritocracy generates. Among the winners, it
generates hubris; among the losers, humiliation.
Meritocratic hubris reflects the tendency of winners
to inhale too deeply of their success, to forget the
luck and good fortune that helped them on their way.
It diminishes our capacity to see ourselves as sharing
a common fate and leaves little room for the solidarity
that can arise when we reflect on the contingency of
our talents and fortunes. More than a protest against
immigrants, outsourcing, and stagnant wages, the
populist complaint is about the tyranny of merit. And
the complaint is justified.In The Tyranny of Merit, a
searing critique of contemporary public discourse,
Michael J. Sandel, "the world's most relevant living
philosopher" (Newsweek), diagnoses our political
moment by seeking out its moral underpinnings. He
highlights the hubris a meritocracy fosters among the
winners and the indignities it inflicts on those left
behind. And he offers an alternative way of thinking
about success--more attentive to the role of luck in
human affairs, more conducive to an ethic of humility,
and more hospitable to a politics of the common
good.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar,
Straus and Giroux

  • 3. A world-famous political philosopher, and the bestselling author of Justice, reveals the driving force behind the resurgence of populism: the tyranny of the meritocracy and the resentments it produces.Our politics are fraught with rancor and resentment. Decades of rising inequality and stalled mobility have fueled a populist revolt against elites. But while the pundits focus on wages and jobs, they are missing a big part of the story: social esteem, and the broader moral dimensions of our current crisis.In recent decades, mainstream politicians across the aisle--from Reagan to Obama--have offered a rhetoric of rising: everyone should be given an equal chance to get ahead.  
  • 4. But the relentless focus on "equal opportunity" ignores the morally corrosive attitudes that even a fair meritocracy generates. Among the winners, it generates hubris; among the losers, humiliation. Meritocratic hubris reflects the tendency of winners to inhale too deeply of their success, to forget the luck and good fortune that helped them on their way. It diminishes our capacity to see ourselves as sharing a common fate and leaves little room for the solidarity that can arise when we reflect on the contingency of our talents and fortunes. More than a protest against immigrants, outsourcing, and stagnant wages, the populist complaint is about the tyranny of merit. And the complaint is justified.In The Tyranny of Merit, a

Sandel, "the world's most relevant living philosopher" (Newsweek), diagnoses our political moment by seeking out its moral underpinnings. He highlights the hubris a meritocracy fosters among the winners and the indignities it inflicts on those left behind. And he offers an alternative way of thinking about success--more attentive to the role of luck in human affairs, more conducive to an ethic of humility, and more hospitable to a politics of the common good.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
