Open Forum: Ethical<br />

Capitalism - Worth a Try?<br />

Capitalism lifted 1 billion people out of poverty in 20<br />

years but, today, society is discontent. Some<br />

believe the neo-liberal capitalist model needs<br />

shaking up, and that regulators, supervisors and<br />

corporate governance managers have failed those<br />

they are meant to protect. Western economic and<br />

social crises are pointing to the bankruptcy of the<br />

capitalist model. Yet the question remains: What is<br />

the alternative?<br />

- Is the ethos of capitalism unethical? What are its<br />

economic and policy structures?<br />

- Who needs to lead the ef<strong>for</strong>t <strong>for</strong> society to act <strong>for</strong><br />

the common good?<br />

Simultaneous interpretation in English and German<br />
