Systems of Survival: A Dialogue on the Moral Foundations of Commerce and Politics - Book by Jane Jacobs

Name: Systems of Survival: A Dialogue on the Moral Foundations of Commerce and Politics
Author: Jane Jacobs

In Systems of Survival, Jane Jacobs explores the moral principles that govern two contrasting sectors of society: commerce and politics. Using a fictional dialogue, Jacobs distinguishes between the ethical systems that underpin business, driven by self-interest and competition, and those of governance, focused on fairness and public service. She argues that when these systems are mixed or misunderstood, societies face corruption and dysfunction. Through this analysis, Jacobs encourages readers to recognize the value of different moral systems and advocate for a balance between market-driven enterprise and responsible governance.
