Description

Currently there is very little debate about the values most of us would agree are crucial to assure a just and sustainable world - a clean environment; efficient renewable energy; a quality education system accessible to all; and opportunities for those in need to help themselves. In The End of Charity, Nic Frances makes the case for a value-centred market economy and urges us all to make space for a new dialogue in which business, government, the welfare sector and individuals come together to address the problems of poverty, inequality and environmental sustainability. It is a space where the world 'value' is reclaimed as a term that reflects what we as a society hold as desirable and important - the things and ideas for which we should strive. It is a hopeful and inspiring book and heralds a breakthrough to lasting change. First published 2008.
