Michael J. Sandel / Penguin Books / 2020年09月10日
"The Tyranny of Merit: What’s Become of the Common Good?" by Michael J. Sandel offers a provocative examination of our current societal obsession with meritocracy. In this thought-provoking book, Sandel argues that while the ideal of meritocracy promises a fair society where everyone can rise based on their talents and efforts, it has in fact led to a tyranny that ignores the common good. He posits that this relentless focus on individual achievement has eroded our sense of community and solidarity, leaving many behind in its relentless pursuit of excellence. The book raises crucial questions about the costs of our meritocratic hubris and urges us to reconsider the values that bind us together as a society.
