Fukuyama oor sosiale kapitaal en religie

Fukuyama on social capital and religion Francis Fukuyama’s “The great disruption” deals with the deterioration of social capital, the shared values that guarantee the happiness of a community. Social dysfunction data are used to describe the disruption. According to him religion can play a role in the necessary social reconstruction, but his sociologistic interpretation of religion leads to an ambivalent description of it. From a philosophical-ethical perspective the relationship between religion and morality is scrutinised. An alternative view is presented.
