KNYGA Donald J Devine The Enduring Tension

Discover the compelling insights of Donald J. Devine in his thought-provoking book, Enduring Tension, published by Encounter Books in 2021. This 384-page hardback delves into the complexities of Western civilization's capitalism, which, despite generating a global abundance, has left many feeling ungrateful for its benefits. Devine explores the paradox of market-driven creative destruction and individual autonomy, raising critical questions about the legitimacy of capitalism itself. Even Pope Francis has remarked on the potential dangers of capitalism's "limitless" freedom, labeling it as a form of "fundamental terrorism." Enduring Tension invites readers to engage with these pressing issues and reflects on the future of economic systems in our society. A must-read for those interested in economics, philosophy, and the moral implications of capitalism.
