Capitalism on Trial – Confronting Cronyism’s Betrayal of Our Values
In an era where the moral authority of capitalism is increasingly questioned, how can we reclaim the ideals that once made it recognized as a force for good?
Hilary Braseth, Bill Shireman and Nick Sorrentino will expose the harsh realities of cronyism and the lack of transparency that has distorted capitalism’s potential. We will specifically focus on:
- The role transparency has to play in exercising access to capitalism, protecting free markets and individual freedoms;
- Whether capitalism and democracy are compatible, and if so, what might principles of engagement and overlap need to look like for a flourishing society;
- The values at the center of “principled capitalism" and what our world would look like if we do it well.
This session challenges participants to confront the systemic failures that have led to the erosion of opportunity and access. Can principled capitalists rise above these obstacles, or has the system become too corrupt to reform?
Engage in a raw, unfiltered panel discussion that dares to ask whether capitalism, as we know it, is on the brink of moral bankruptcy—or whether there is still time to salvage it through bold, moral leadership.
