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 />
