Bloom argues that present day capitalism has robbed us of our individual and collective ability to imagine and implement alternative and more progressive economic and social systems; it has deprived us of our radical freedom to choose how we live and what we can become. Since the Great Recession, capitalism has been increasingly blamed for rising inequality and feelings of mass social and political alienation. In place of a deeper liberty, the free market offers subjects the opportunity to continually reinvest their personal and shared hopes within its dogmatic ideology and policies. This embrace helps to temporarily alleviate growing feelings of anxiety and insecurity at the expense of our fundamental human agency. What has become abundantly clear is that the free market is anything but free. Here, Bloom exposes our present day bad faith in the free market and how we can break free from it. Peter Bloom is Senior Lecturer and Head of the Department of People and Organisations at the Open University, UK. His primary research interests include ideology, subjectivity and power, specifically as they relate to broader discourses and everyday practices of capitalism and democracy. . 606 $aSchools of economics 606 $aScience$xPhilosophy 606 $aEconomics$xHistory 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aHeterodox Economics 606 $aPhilosophy of Science 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 615 0$aSchools of economics. 615 0$aScience$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aEconomics$xHistory. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 14$aHeterodox Economics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Science. 615 24$aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 676 $a330.122 700 $aBloom$b Peter$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0793710 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299657703321 996 $aThe Bad Faith in the Free Market$92526386 997 $aUNINA
