Here's an Introduction of What You're About to Discover in this Premium Summary of The Tyranny of Merit: What's Become of the Common Good? by Michael J. Sandel :
“The Tyranny of Merit: What’s Become of the Common Good?” is Michael Sanel’s newest book wherein the author tries to make sense of civic life which for him hasn’t been going very well. Sandel discusses the divide between winners and losers and how this gap has been deepening resulting in individualism and the corrosion of the common good. He emphasizes heavily on meritocracy and its adverse effects on society such as hubris and resentment towards the credentialed elites who seem to look down on the people less successful than they are.
The Tyranny of Merit has already enlightened the minds of many readers including Elliot Gerson an Executive Vice President for Policy and Public Programs and International Partners in The Aspen Institute as he says “The book will be a classic on the founding question of the Aspen Institute: “what is the good society?” And it makes a point that will be surprising if not shocking to many: the answer isn’t meritocracy.” It has also earned ratings of 4.4 out of 5 on Amazon.com and 4.2 out of 5 on Goodreads.com
