Capitalism has been an unprecedented engine of wealth creation for
many centuries, leading to sustained productivity gains and long-term
growth and lifting an increasing proportion of humanity out of
poverty. But its effects, and hence its future, have come increasingly
under question: Is capitalism still improving wealth and well-being
for the many? Or, is long-term value creation being sacrificed to the
pressures of short-termism, with potentially far-reaching consequences
for society, the natural environment, prosperity, and global order?
Building on a collaboration between the Schulich School of Business
and global management consultancy McKinsey & Company, this volume
reflects both the urgency of the needed action and the tremendous
opportunity to forge consensus and catalyze a lasting movement toward
a more responsible, long-term, and sustainable model of capitalism.
This unique volume brings together many of the leading proponents for
a reformed, re-imagined capitalism from the Âfields of academia,
business, and NGOs. Its contributors have been at the forefront of
thought and action in regard to the future of capitalism. Both
individually and collectively, they provide powerful suggestions of
what such a long-term oriented model of capitalism should look like
and how it can be achieved. Drawing on their research and professional
experience, they write in an accessible style aiming to reach the
broad audiences required to turn a re-imagined capitalism into a
reality.
