False Dawn
by John Gray
False Dawn by British philosopher John Gray, published in 1998, is interesting to read, decades on, for its take on the limits of global capitalism for bringing good to the world. He sees belief in an unfettered free market as a ‘utopia’, along the same lines as communism. “Over time it may come to rival it in the suffering that it inflicts,” he writes.
