Frank Furedi on Capitalism after the "Credit Crunch"
This is one of the most interesting and insightful articles on the present financial turmoil that I have read.
Frank Furedi, professor of sociology at the University of Kent in the UK, asks what capitalism is good for.
Furedi writes for spiked, an online resource edited by the self-identified libertarian Marxist Brendan O'Neill. I guess Furedi would also accept this tag. Often the articles they write are more libertarian in content than those written by self-proclaimed defenders of private property and free markets. Readers of Liberty & Power are unlikely to agree with everything Furedi writes in this article but they may be surprised with just how much they do agree with him.
