Book Description
Much existing economic theory overlooks ethics. Rather than situating the market and values at separate extremes of a continuum,
Ethics and the Market contends that the two are necessarily and intimately related.
This volume brings together some of the best work in the social economics tradition, with contributions on the social economy, social capital, identity, ethnicity and development, the household, externalities, international finance, capability, and pedagogy. Proceeding from an examination of the moral implications of markets, the book goes on to explore such themes as the institutional arrangements of social economies, individual and household decision-making, and economic development in a global context.
Ethics and the Market illuminates the diverse and dynamic theoretical approaches that are employed in social economics, reflecting on their continuously evolving relationship with neoclassical economics. This book will prove vital reading for students and academics in the fields of Economics, Sociology, Gender Studies, and Public Policy.
