According to the liberal ideology, the market left to itself creates the best opportunities and the greatest well-being for all. It is an illusion whose economic premises this book criticizes and explores the ethical, social and political consequences. He emphasized how, in a society that resolves itself in the market, money can buy everything and inequalities of income, wealth and opportunities can grow out of all proportion in the name of merit, incentives, efficiency.
Andrea Boitani is Full Professor of Political Economy at the Catholic University of Milan (Faculty of Banking, Finance and Insurance Sciences). He is the author of various books, and numerous essays published in international journals.
