Abstract
Some fragmentary avenues concerning the various modes of causality whereby financialization has managed to permeate society will be briefly explored here. Perhaps the most powerful and fundamental process analysed here is the slow maturation of ideas. It took more than two centuries for the efficiency ethos to become the dominant, unquestioned paradigm and world view in the modern era. Our first priority for action should therefore be to resist this paradigm’s attempt to monopolize meaning — for meaning is first and foremost a question of ends, and only then of means. The aim, then, is not to make financialization more moral, but to make it subservient to ends that respect human dignity and human nature.KeywordsHuman DignityCommon GoodInside TradingResponsible InvestmentGolden ShareThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
