RE: The difference between the 'Market' in early liberalism and in contemporary neoliberalism

in #life7 years ago

It appears that the original liberal conception of the market is that it was a 'thing' that stood outside of the individual. Instead, the modern conception of the market is infused within, and defused through, each and every member of society.
This is very true. Great reflection on the concept of market!

Thank you @vm2904. I think this conception of the market has huge ramifications for modern life. It has even been said by some of our erstwhile leaders that every individual should run their life as if it is a business. This takes the human right out of "the social". Thanks for your comment.
