About this product
Product Information
The argument of this book is that it is in the nature of modernity to foster compassion. Most critics tend to think of modernity as corrosive of moral sentiments. They see clearly the way in which modernity breaks down older social bonds, but they are much less attentive to the ways in which it also builds new ones. This book offers a historically informed corrective to this common view.

Reviews
This book lucidly attacks the persisting idea that modernity weakens moral solidarity. It shows clearly that compassion does not descend from 'tradition,' but arises from both capitalism and democracy. In demonstrating that compassion is a moral sentiment more than an ideology of power and control, Sznaider offers important revisions of classic and recent social theory.
