Capitalisim of worker control? : an ethical and economic appraisal
"Schweickart, David"
Capitalisim of worker control? : an ethical and economic appraisal - New York Praeger Pub. 1980 - 250 p.
A similar experience has prompted this book. A decade ago 1 was a mathematician, with a fresh Ph.D., a teaching position, and a growing suspicion that my profession was irrelevant to important things. I escaped to philosophy. From the philosophy of mathematics I went through existentialism and ethics, arriving at social philosophy and Marshall's uneasiness concerning the justification of the existing conditions of society. Then I encountered professors of economies. We argued heatedly. On the whole I found them complacent, conde scending, infuriating-but also unnerving. They knew things I didn't know. The reverse was also true, but no matter-economics was a "science" and philosophy merely a "humanity."
