Grumbling Hive Revisited
Private Greed, Public Need
Author: Bernard MandevillePublisher: Bunim & Bannigan
In the original Grumbling Hive, dishonesty and vice created employment and wealth, inspiring Adam Smith, whose idealization of markets is a template for today’s unbridled capitalism. In Mandeville Sr.’s fable, a turn to honesty by his bees ( miniature Europeans) ruins the economy. In Mandeville Jr.’s fable, bees as they are, a community based on mutual support and selfless care, are ruined by the adoption of unbridled capitalism.
