En savoir plus sur le livre

Are we on the way to a society where everything is for sale? Organ trade, child labor, sex work, the trade in votes, weapons, or female reproductive capacities are already subjected to the conditions of capitalist commodification. However, when every area of life is commercialized, inequality and social tensions arise, as not everything becomes equally accessible to every person. Debra Satz impressively describes and analyzes the consequences of an all-encompassing market orientation for society, in social, cultural, and political terms.
