Recently I have come across a very interesting website. Sponsored by The School of Life,  The Book of Life discuss the function of traditional publication in modern times in their introduction:

In the chapter CAPITALISM > GOOD CAPITALISM, one article discussed “how the modernworld makes us mentally ill“, in which the writer listed meritocracy, media and individualism as three main elements that generate “the forces of psychological distress in our world”. The analysis are, not so surprisingly, an interpretation from another angle of my in-progress project.
