1. How does Michael Sandel support the thesis that "over the past three decades we have drifted from having a market economy to becoming a market society?
A market economy is a tool; it's a valuable and effective tool for organizing productive activity. A market society is different. A market society is a place; it's a way of life where market relations and market values come to dominate all aspects of life where just about everything is up for sale.
2. What sorts of arguments are offered for and against the assumed proposal of paying young children two dollars for every book they read?
Indeed, says Sandel, that’s what experts disagree on as well: Will cash incentives drive out the higher motivation, to learn and read? It turns out the cash for good grades programs had very mixed results, while the $2 to read books was successful. Sort of. Students did read more books , but they read shorter ones.
3. Now, what is your standpoint about cash incentives at school or at home to encourage students to read more books?
We can incentive students with a good comment, motivating them and challenging with activities and also picking interesting books for them.
4. When Michael Sandel contends that "this tendency of markets and cash incentives of crowding out nonmarket goods, higher goods, can be seen in may spheres of social life, what sort of "higher goods" do you think he is refering to?
Teaching, learning,education, engaging in civic life, things that money can't buy.
5. What kind of nonmaterial goods do you think have been crowded out by market transactions in Colombia?
Politics, religion and education.
6. What should be the role of money and markets in our Colombian society?
The role of money and markets in our society is to make our economy grow and improve different fields in our society.
