This book explores the causes and consequences of market failure in
bridging societal differences to create a shared economy. It
questions the current world order and evaluates socio-economic
gains in reference to the social origins of the economic agents.
With a need to counterbalance economic growth with social equality
and environmental sustainability, the book proposes innovative
approaches to address key questions on the contemporary global
economy such as, "Is the Global socio-economic order supportive of
the pursuit of rational and enlightened self -interest?", "Is it a
unipolar power centre and neoliberal economic policy regime?", "Can
the system reinvent itself?", etc. One approach encourages going
back to the golden past and making things "great again", insisting
that history has ended and the failures of old global institutions
be blamed on the "Clash of Civilizations". Another approach
advocates giving up the intellectual comfort zone of elegant but
irrelevant neo-liberal explanations of global challenges and asking
new questions that take academic debate to the public square. The
book examines the internal challenges and contradictions that cause
disintegration and proposes alternative ideas and practices in
moving the global community beyond the free market regime. The book
will appeal to students and academics of development studies,
political economy, political science, sociology, as well as
policymakers and public opinion makers interested in creating a new
egalitarian global society.
