Jews, Confucians, and Protestants: Cultural Capital and the End of Multiculturalism
Multiculturalism—the belief that no culture is better or worse than any other; it is merely different—has come to dominate Western intellectual thought and to serve as a guide to domestic and foreign policy and development aid. But what if multiculturalism itself is flawed? What if some cultures are more prone to progress than others and more successful at creating the cultural capital that encourages democratic governance, social justice for all…
The hidden form of capital: Spiritual Influences in Societal Progress

The Spirit of Capitalism
Culture matters: How Values Shape Human Progress
"Prominent scholars and journalists ponder the question of why, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, the world is more divided than ever between the rich and the poor, between those living in freedom and those under oppression." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0832/00022951-d.html.
A Culture of Its Own: Taking Latin America Seriously
