Limits Inherent in Human Nature

Paul H. Dembinski

Chapter 3.2 in Finance: Servant or Deceiver?, 2009, pp 153-158 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Besides the limits inherent in financialization itself, the process may also run into external obstacles. Three of these deserve brief mention here: (i) the widespread sense that life has lost all meaning; (ii) the erosion of ethical principles and (iii) the sense of ethical alienation and helplessness. These obstacles may well be inherent in human nature.
