Manufacturing Social Distress

More about the book

Exploring the concept of human wickedness, this book critiques two significant obstacles: inappropriate scientism and moralism. It argues that a misguided scientific perspective diminishes the acknowledgment of human agency in global events, treating human behavior as merely a response to external factors. This framework neglects the potential for individual and collective decisions to shape conduct, suggesting that moral responsibility is essential for understanding human actions. The work invites readers to reconsider the interplay between human agency and external influences.
