Love and the Market : How to Recover from the Enlightenment and Survive the Current Crisis

Bristol University Press

Love is fundamental to the flourishing of society and nature. However, the competition of the market economy has resulted in a fractured and traumatized modern world. Revisiting philosophical developments and countercultures since the Enlightenment, this book offers a \u2018loving critique\u2019. It shows how learning to love better is the key to releasing ourselves from the alienating grip of the market. The utopian template presented draws on archaeology, the witch trials, hippies, Hinduism, Buddhism, quantum mechanics and psychedelics to describe how we can build a more loving society that can survive and flourish through the ecological, ethical, economic and existential crises that we all now face.\n\nLove and the Market \u2013 How to Recover from the Enlightenment and Survive the Current Crisis\nHow to Recover from the Enlightenment and Survive the Current Crisis\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked se;
