Actually, many questions arise about capitalism, its forms, and how to transform it in a more sustainable system. Many contradictions are faced when scholars have attempted conceptually to abolish capitalism as an economic philosophy. In fact, capitalism is like energy; you cannot deny the existence of energy, but you can try to transform it in the most appropriate and productive way. On the other hand, we should be also aware that relying on phenomena like philanthropy or not-for-profit organizations, we are not helping society and environment in the real sense; we are only shifting the attention from deep solutions to superficial ones. For example, history has shown that many philanthropic people have been aggressive capitalists and business-men prior of being philanthropist. Like there are many non-profit for their own benefit. Therefore, the question is how to transform positively capitalism through innovations, entrepreneurship, and social business.

Abstract
Actually, many questions arise about capitalism, its forms, and how to transform it in a more sustainable system. Many contradictions are faced when scholars have attempted conceptually to abolish capitalism as an economic philosophy. In fact, capitalism is like energy; you cannot deny the existence of energy, but you can try to transform it in the most appropriate and productive way. On the other hand, we should be also aware that relying on phenomena like philanthropy or not-for-profit organizations, we are not helping society and environment in the real sense; we are only shifting the attention from deep solutions to superficial ones. For example, history has shown that many philanthropic people have been aggressive capitalists and business-men prior of being philanthropist. Like there are many non-profit for their own benefit. Therefore, the question is how to transform positively capitalism through innovations, entrepreneurship, and social business.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
