Le prix de nos valeurs - Augustin Landier & David Thesmar
- In french. First published in 2022 (e-book).
Moral values are at the heart of our social debates. But the price to pay for defending these values is rarely discussed. That adherence to a moral good - ecology, diversity, help for the most deprived... - depends on its economic cost makes us uncomfortable. We would like to be able to make just and good choices "whatever the cost". However, defending a value means agreeing to pay the price. To have beautiful museums and promote our culture, do we agree to pay more taxes?
