Volume 2 responds to the challenge laid down in Volume 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Volume 1, we argued that shareholders and the financial sector of the economy had become severed from stakeholders within companies who do the work and create the wealth we all enjoy. This has led to gross inequality with declining rewards for those working in the real economy on productive tasks. In turn, this has reduced wages and diverted funds from the most important contributors. We are less productive and innovative as a consequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this volume, we will address the subject of values. We will argue that values have scientific and verifiable meanings and it is possible to determine with great accuracy the kind of valuing that contributes to our integrity and the values that tear us apart. We criticise the contention of positivists that values are entirely subjective, have no testable meaning and are mere matters of taste, like the taste buds on tongues. We believe this doctrine has betrayed generations of students and must come to an end. Once we have restored values to their proper place, we will see who in our society creates wealth and value and who does not, who threatens democracy and who supports it. All values are really \u003cem\u003edifferences, \u003c\/em\u003eand we need to reconcile these differences to remain civilized and in dialogue with one another. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Hampden-Turner,Linda O'Riordan,Fons Trompenaars\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1912635984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781912635986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Filament Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 8.00w x 0.65d","brand":"Charles Hampden-Turner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49000506720511,"sku":"9781912635986","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/capitalism-in-crisis-volume-2-charles-hampden-turner-9781912635986","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
