I believe that the great danger of the market society is that it instils illusionary beliefs in us. We were better to be taught to look out of the window as well as for gold, for if we only look for gold we are not becoming who we really are. If we learn to look out of the window, we begin to look for what the economist Yannis Varoufakis suggests is as stake: ‘our creativity, our relationships, our humanity and, of course, our planet.’
