具体描述
These are dangerous times for democracy. We live in an age of winners and losers, where the odds are stacked in favour of the already fortunate. Stalled social mobility and entrenched inequality give the lie to the promise that "you can make it if you try". And the consequence is a brew of anger and frustration that has fuelled populist protest, with the triumph of Brexit and election of Donald Trump.
Michael J. Sandel argues that to overcome the polarized politics of our time, we must rethink the attitudes toward success and failure that have accompanied globalisation and rising inequality. Sandel highlights the hubris a meritocracy generates among the winners and the harsh judgement it imposes on those left behind. He offers an alternative way of thinking about success - more attentive to the role of luck in human affairs, more conducive to an ethic of humility, and more hospitable to a politics of the common good.

评分##2.5 Looks like his writing is paid by number of words and his narration number of hours lol. This writing style ugh
评分##听了一个小时 Michael Sanders 的 podcast，只能说，这个问题简直就是针对中国父母来的吧。可惜那些能听得进这些意见的人，估计也不会搞什么起跑线 to begin with..
评分##有时候同样的观点重复了好几遍，有些冗长感。
评分##前半部分的分析很深刻，但是后半部分提出的解决方案感觉狗尾续貂。
评分##Strive for "a broad equality of condition that enables those who do not achieve great wealth or prestigious positions to live lives of decency and dignity — developing and exercising their abilities in work that wins social esteem, sharing in a widely diffused culture of learning, and deliberating with their fellow citizens about public affairs."
评分##有时候同样的观点重复了好几遍，有些冗长感。
评分##精英们不因将成功归结为纯个人努力的结果，也无权为“失败者”决定所谓的“机会平等”和补偿，真正的良好社会则在于，培养公民意识，通过广泛而平等的公共商议，协力寻找并追求无论成功与否都能获得尊严和幸福的共同价值
评分##剖析了meritocracy的内在逻辑以及它如何导致了美国和世界范围内日渐兴起的民粹主义。不仅对政治经济这样的“大问题”颇具启发，也帮助我反思自己所受的成长和教育环境的影响—那些由“标签”与“比较”带来的纠结—以及自身不假思索的精英主义倾向。美中不足的是，作者对the tyranny of meritocracy所提出的实质解决方案相对有限，而且主要集中在精英大学录取制度的层面，而没有触及如何将其所倡导的公民美德教育普及给更广泛的社会阶层。不过，相信这本书是一个好的开始，希望在未来，不同阶级，身份的人都可以骄傲地说，“我们都有光明的前途。”
