Description
"Competition and competitiveness are roundly celebrated as public values and key indicators of a dynamic and forwardthinking society. But the headlong embrace of competitive market principles, increasingly prevalent in our neoliberal age, often obscures the enduring divisiveness of a society set up to produce winners and losers. In this inspired and thoughtfully argued book, the author turns to the later writings of W.E.B. Du Bois to reevaluate the very terms of the competitive society." --,provided by publisher
