Since the Financial Crisis of 2008, there has been and continues to
be a debate about the proper role of the free market in the United
States and beyond. On one side there are those who defend the free
market as a method to provide both wealth and democratic
legitimacy; while on the other side are thinkers who reject the
orthodoxy of the free market and call for a greater role of
government in society to correct its failures. But what is needed
in this debate is a return to the vantage point of the human
condition to better understand both the free market and our role in
it. The Free Market and the Human Condition explores what the human
condition can reveal to us about the free market its strengths, its
limits, and its weaknesses and, in turn, what the free market can
illuminate about the essence of the human condition. Because the
human condition is multifaceted, this book has adopted an
interdisciplinary approach, drawing upon the disciplines of
philosophy, theology, archeology, literature, sociology, political
science, criminal justice, and education. Since it is impossible
for one to know all aspects of the human condition, the book
consists of contributors who approach the topic from their
respective disciplines, thereby providing an accumulated picture of
the free market and the human condition. Although it does not claim
to provide a comprehensive account of the human condition as
situated in the free market, The Free Market and the Human
Condition transcends the current climate of debate about the free
market and provides a way forward in our understanding about the
role that free market plays in our society."
