Martha C. Nussbaum

In Not for Profit, Nussbaum alerts us to a “silent crisis” in which
nations “discard skills” as they “thirst for national profit.” As the arts
and humanities are everywhere downsized, there is a serious erosion
of the very qualities that are essential to democracy itself. Nussbaum
reminds us that great educators and nation-builders understood how
the arts and humanities teach children the critical thinking that is
necessary for independent action and for intelligent resistance to the
power of blind tradition and authority. Students of art and literature
also learn to imagine the situations of others, a capacity that is essential
for a successful democracy, a necessary cultivation of our “inner
eyes.”
