Andrej Fištravec on the power of reason in capitalism

Sociologist Andrej Fištravec relects in the daily Večer on the need for common sense in times of global capitalism: "My common sense tells me that I can resolve recurring problems by removing their cause. ... But when it comes to the global economic crisis things get complicated - as if common sense no longer functioned. ... When I look at the history of Western capitalism I see that it constantly produces a new and ever greater social imbalance. One could say that the rise of Western capitalism over the past two centuries has created a state of permanent social crisis. ... By examining its history up to the present I have learned two lessons: the first is that the intensity of social conflict increases with time. ... The second is that Western-style capitalism has never really managed to unite the world. ... On the contrary, it has split it up (again). ... Common sense can have an impact on the fate of our world. It is only through the power of reason and through an ability to see the world for what it is that a new world can emerge, only to be replaced in the next instant by another world."
