Abstract

With his bestselling book "The Economics of Good and Evil" Tomáš Sedláček maintains the position of a star critic of capitalism. "Demons of the capital" dissects our economic system and shows just how truly disturbed it is. Many believe that the economy operates according to the laws of logic; however, the reality is opposite this belief.

The economy is shaken by every new crisis. Its actors - central bankers, managers, politicians - are often driven by delusions and personality disorders.

Those who really want to understand the economy have to look through therapeutic glasses. Tomáš Sedláček and Oliver Tanzer put our economy on the couch and arrived at surprising yet disturbing insights.
