This book explores the underlying causes of the pervasive dominance
of 'unethics' in contemporary affairs in economics, business, and
society. It is argued that the state of unethics is related to the
overexpansion of market and market values in all spheres of social
life and human activities. A correlate of this development is the
emergence of an extremely individualistic, materialistic and
narcissistic mind-set that dictates the decisions and behavior of
people and organizations. The author argues that art can help to
overcome the dominant market metaphysics of our age, as genuine art
creates models of 'poetic dwelling,' which can generate non-linear,
progressive change that opens up a larger playing field for ethics.
Aesthetics and ethics go hand in hand. Ethical action is not just
right for its own sake, but makes the world a richer, livable and
more beautiful place. Ethics, Meaning, and Market Society will be
of interest to students at an advanced level, academics,
researchers and professionals. It addresses the topics with regard
to ethics in economics, business, and society in a contemporary
context.
