The main theme of this book is that, within contemporary capitalist
societies a materialist outlook informed by science has triumphed
creating the lack of a spiritual dimension to give meaning and
purpose to the activities that are necessary for a capitalist
society to function effectively. Capitalist societies are in
trouble and need to be restructured to provide for the material
needs of all the people who work within the system, not just the
one percent, but because of the lack of a spiritual connection with
each other and with nature this is not likely to happen. It has
been said that society and the organizations within treat one
another as objects to be manipulated in the interests of promoting
economic growth and treat nature as an object to be exploited for
the same purpose. This way of treating each other, and nature, is
consistent with the way a capitalist system has worked in the past
and was supposed to enable it to function efficiently to provide a
fulfilling and enriched life for all its adherents through growth
of the economy. However, as capitalist societies have become
dysfunctional they will need a different kind of orientation to
continue in existence. Restructuring Capitalism: Materialism and
Spiritualism in Business argues that what is needed is a new sense
of a spiritualization of the self and its relation to others and to
the establishment of a spiritual connection with nature in order
for capitalism to be restructured to work for everyone and for the
society as a whole.
