Reviews

'Large-scale socialism has failed, but markets alone are not the solution, says Geoffrey Hodgson in this highly engaging and readable book. To meet the many challenges we face today, what we need is liberal solidarity, or what he also calls a regenerated form of social democratic liberalism . We must begin by recognizing one essential fact: Bentham was wrong. Human beings are not just pleasure-seeking, utility-maximizing creatures. They have deep moral sentiments and dispositions that cause them to understand their obligations to others. Full of insights and suggestions, this is a compelling read.' -- Helena Rosenblatt, City University of New York, US
