In our time we hear much of what is wrong with our economic world with the shortfalls in economic performance and general well-being. My purpose in this lecture is to ask what would be right: what is the nature, what are the requirements, of the good and achievable economy and polity. This is a time of intense and, indeed, dangerous disorder in the countries, notably those of the former Soviet Union, that are making their uncertain and difficult way to a different economic and political system. That is perhaps the greatest economic and political issue and challenge of our time, the one where failure will portend the greatest disaster. On this I will have a later word
