This chapter deals with the diverse causes of criticism of capitalism, whether they arise from the rejection of poverty or impoverishment, or from alienation and exploitation. Newer arguments such as growing inequality, as well as criticism of corporations and executive salaries, will also be listed for the sake of completeness, along with the increasingly dramatic appeals to the incompatibility of ecology and economy. At the end of this chapter, I will address the discussion of changing values over time, as in my opinion, the main causes for this critical attitude towards capitalism lie particularly in this shift in values of the younger generation.
