The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity - Part VI (with Red Library)

from The Regrettable Century · host Chris, Kevin, and Jason

This week we are joined once again by Adam and Don from Red Library. We continue our multi part series tackling the monster tome by Eugene McCarraher, The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity. McCarraher believes that capitalism displaced religion and disenchanted the world and that Capitalism then became a religion itself, replacing the sacramental enchantment of the pre-capitalist world with a pecuniary enchantment that he calls Mammonism.
