Description
| [Is there such a thing as a world where you can live without making money? It is believed that we live in a world where we can do anything we want as long as we have [money], but in order to achieve that [economic freedom], people are forced to [keep winning] under the strict rules of the capitalist economy. Adam*Smith, the father of economics, originally proposed a system in which people are cheated in such a way to protect the rules of society and develop the economy at the same time. However, that system has reached its limits. It cannot cope with problems that force a rethinking of the entire system, such as the financial and climate crises. Nevertheless, the traditional alternatives have the danger of tying people to ideals, and the alternative, the gift economy, also has structural problems. This book therefore advocates a completely new [gift economy 2.0]. Using the latest technology, the book vividly depicts the reality of a new economic sphere that does not involve money. [Highly praised by various circles!] *Kohei Saito (Associate Professor, University of Tokyo) I can't stop being excited about [Economy 2.0] that transcends capitalism as pioneered by a philosopher! *Masayuki Osawa (Sociologist) A synthesis of philosophical speculation and practical considerations. An economy different from capitalism is possible! *Mr. Hikaru Kashida (Former Head of Data Analysis Team, Mercari) Freedom depending on money or human ties? An adventure in thinking about the contradictions of capitalism. *Mr. Yuma Nakazato (Fashion Designer) The author's bold challenge to create new connections between people makes us forget that this is an unreachable challenge for mankind. *Mr. Hoshi Satoru (Zen priest of the Soto sect) Without exaggeration, this book is one of the most shocking books I have ever read in my life. [Main contents] Chapter 1: Why We Cannot Live Without Earning Money: Exploring the Structure of the Capitalist Economy Chapter 2: Why Attempts to Create an Ideal Society Keep Failing: Another [Modern Society] and the Postwar Order Chapter 3: Why the Gift Economy Cannot Become an Alternative as It Is: Reconstructing the Theory of the Gift Economy Chapter 4: What the Society of the Future Should Be: A [New Economy] Based on Free Relationships with Others Chapter 5 What Should We Do Now--How to Create a [Gift Economy 2.0 Chapter 6: What Future Society Will Look Like--Beyond [Modern Society [Author Biographies] Daisuke Araya Professor of Literature at Keio University and Professor Emeritus at Edogawa University.
