Abstract

Any discussion of capitalism’s future rapidly evokes deeply rooted and often polarized views. Capitalism embodies what is right or what is wrong with the world. For some, a future of capitalism stands for liberty and happiness, for others repression and despair. Many are quick to predict specific changes in capitalism’s nature. Some envision a future of computers and robotics, home offices and telecommuting, multinational corporations and global market places. Why does this social conjuring hold such a fascination for so many? The answer is simple: for millions of people around the globe, consciously or unconsciously, capitalism is their life.
