Can a stock market solve the systemic issues of social injustice?
In short: Host Manoush Zomorodi and Eric Ries explore how quarterly earnings reports drive anti-social behavior and whether a new US stock exchange could offer a systemic solution for social justice.
The discussion focuses on the limitations of current financial structures, specifically how the pressure of quarterly earnings reports can encourage anti-social behavior. Eric Ries, the author of Silicon Valley's 'bible', proposes that instead of accepting existing social institutions as fixed, a new generation of civic entrepreneurs could build better ones.
This approach suggests that a new stock exchange in the US could serve as a tool for social change, providing inspiration for those looking to redesign the institutions that govern our society.
