It s a good question, isn t it
-
how much money
does any of us really need? Anger towards greedy
bankers and their Obscene bonuses has recently given
way to a deeper dissatisfaction with an economic
system geared overwhelmingly to the accumulation of
greater and greater wealth. Huge income disparities
and an ever-growing gap between the richest and
the rest has brought us to one of those rare moments
when the underlying assumptions of society may be
changing. Robert and Edward Skidelsky go beyond
the current debate about growing inequality to ask
what we need money for. They argue that wealth is
not or should not be
-
an end in itself, but a means
to the good life .
They begin with the great economist John Maynard
Keynes. In
1930
Keynes predicted that, over the
next century, per capita income would rise steadily,
people s basic needs would be met, and no one would
have to work more than fifteen hours a week. Clearly,
he was wrong: though income has risen as he foresaw,
our wants have expanded just as fast, and we
continue to work long hours.
The Skidelskys explain why Keynes was mistaken.
Then, presenting economics as a moral rather than
an exact science, they trace the concept of the good
life from Aristotle to the present and show how far
modern life has strayed from that ideal. They reject
the idea that there is any single measure of human
progress, whether GDP or happiness , and instead
describe the seven elements which, they argue,
together make up the good life. Finally, they propose
some radical economic policies to help us meet
the true human needs they have identified.
Robert Skidelsky is Emeritus Professor of
Political Economy at the University of Warwick.
His three-volume biography of John Maynard
Keynes
(1983, 1992, 2000)
received numerous
prizes, including the Lionel
Gelber
Prize for
International Relations and the Council on
Foreign Relations Prize for International
Relations. ( This three-volume life of the
British economist should be given a Nobel Prize
for History if there was such a thing - Norman
Stone.) He was made a life peer in
1991
and
a Fellow of the British Academy in
1994.
Edward Skidelsky is a lecturer in philosophy at
the University of Exeter. He is author of Ernst
Cassirer:
The Last Philosopher of Culture and
contributes regularly to the New Statesman
and Prospect. He is currently working on a
book entitled The Language of the Virtues.
