Reviving Virtue: Pragmatism and Perspective in Modern Times

Ep 16 - From Pragmatism to Outcry: The Social Construction of Economics and the Violence of Our Times
In this episode of Reviving Virtue, I explore the complex interplay between economics, morality, and violence in contemporary American society. Drawing on the philosophies of John Dewey and the hyper-reality of today's multinational firms, I reflect on the moral consequences of their actions and the seeming inevitability of societal anger and violence. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, historical context, and ethical inquiry, the episode invites listeners to consider how we might challenge the status quo, imbue our culture with new vocabulary, and recognize the social construction of economics as a path to a more harmonious future.
