By reading this summary, you will discover the crises facing society and how to invent the capitalism of tomorrow.


You will also discover :


  • what are the three major current crises and how to tackle them;
  • that it is important to return to ethical notions in order to find a solution to the crises;
  • a proposal for changing the current paternalistic model into a maternalist system;
  • who are the winners of the growth of the metropolises and how to distribute these gains more equitably;
  • how to put ethics back at the center of society to counter social collapse.

  • Capitalism and an apology for free enterprise are part of the dominant ideology that has shaped today's world. It is indisputable, on a global scale, that such an ideology has reduced poverty and raised the global level of wealth. However, capitalism also causes serious fractures in populations and plunges societies into economic and social crises. It provokes political radicalization and ideological confrontation over the moral definition of society. From the analysis of this situation, it is possible to imagine a new form of society that will have to put forward ethics within its organization. To regain confidence in the future, it is urgent to abolish the current paternalistic model and replace it with another. What can the future of capitalism look like?
