Dobro društvo: Humani plan

Dobro društvo: Humani plan

John Kenneth Galbraith

In The Good Society: A Humane Plan, distinguished economist John Kenneth Galbraith proposes a radical vision of a more just society that subordinates economic growth to the well-being and dignity of all citizens.

In this influential study, one of the most prominent economists of the 20th century, John Kenneth Galbraith, presents a humanist vision of a society that puts the market economy at the service of the common good, not exclusively of profit. The author examines the shortcomings of modern capitalism, warning of growing social inequality, neglect of the public sector, and the systematic ignoring of the most vulnerable segments of the population.

Galbraith argues that a truly "good society" must provide basic economic security, health care, and education as fundamental human rights, not as privileges reserved for a few. Through a sharp critique of political indifference and dogmatic reliance on the invisible hand of the market, he advocates redefining priorities in which the state takes an active role in protecting the environment, eradicating poverty, and reducing vast class differences.

The book is a visionary proclamation for a more just and compassionate world, offering timeless guidelines for building a more humane political and economic order.
