Humanity and Nature in Economic Thought: Searching for the Organic
Origins of the Economy argues that organic elements seen as
incompatible with rational homo economicus have been left out of,
or downplayed in, mainstream histories of economic thought. The
chapters show that organic aspects (that is, aspects related to
sensitive, cognitive or social human qualities) were present in the
economic ideas of a wide range of important thinkers including
Hume, Smith, Malthus, Mill, Marshall, Keynes, Hayek and the Polanyi
brothers. Moreover, the contributors to this thought-provoking
volume reveal in turn that these aspects were crucial to how these
key figures thought about the economy. This stimulating collection
of essays will be of interest to advanced students and scholars of
the history of economic thought, economic philosophy, heterodox
economics, moral philosophy and intellectual history.
