- Opis:
- At the end of the 20th century the Conservative Revolution (Thatcherism and Reagan’s economy) dismantled the post-war consensus and welfare state policy of the West. In the East the communist system collapsed. Francis Fukuyama declared “The end of History”. Even People’s Republic of China started to share the free market economy views. When global financial crisis has broken out in 2008, the “unmovable” pendulum of political and social thought came back into motion. A year later the Nobel Prize in Economics was given to Elinor Ostrom, who believed in common-pool resources and management by local community rather than typical private ownership. According to left -wing thinkers the crisis was the end of capitalism and free economy rules. History shows us that we are unable to avoid periodical crises in this matter, though capitalism is not dead. The free market economy principals are not obsolete. Like Copernicus’ theory, they are not brand new but still up to date. Returning to classical views on welfare is like supporting Ptolemy’s vision of world (and space). Nowadays only the effective social policy is desirable and acceptable. Among classical ideologies “cruel” liberalism is the winner. However it doesn’t mean that the ideological pendulum has been stopped. Edmund Burke claimed that “a state without means of some chance is without the means of its conservation”. It is exactly the same with the liberal thought.
