Faceless Figures: Is a Socially Responsible Decision Possible?

In: Stakeholder Theory

Author

  • Jean-Luc Moriceau

Abstract

The ‘invisible hand’ has to be limited. The hand is not always that of a magician, transmuting the selfish interest of each individual into the collective interest. Sometimes the hand needs a rap across the knuckles. The hand cannot just hold everything and take everything; it also needs to be a hand stretched out to those whom it is strangling. Being invisible, it operates incognito, without a face, and thus without responsibility.
