Morality of MarketsParth J. Shah, Parth Shah Academic Foundation, 2004 - Počet stran: 358 Essays from distinguished economists, ethicists, and theologians are included in this unique collection, which explores the moral and ethical foundations of the free market. From the economic and philosophical perspective, the notion that private property and market exchanges are inherently unjust is systematically disproved. Addressing critical issues ranging from the underlying ethics of voluntary exchange to the role of markets in the teaching of major world religions, these essays conclude that capitalist markets are fundamentally moral and that government interventions in capitalist acts among consenting adults are dissolute. |
