The Values of Economics - An Aristotelian Perspective (Paperback, New)

This book seeks to bring human caring back into economic theory, attacking assumptions that little attention has to be paid to values since they are merely subjective. Irene Van Staberen demonstrates that much economic analysis does in fact presuppose a specific value position and argues that the treatment of values in economics must be extended, identifying three domains; freedom. Justice and care.
Irene van Staveren has recently been awarded the Mydral Prize 2000 for the best European monograph in Institutional economics, work on which this book is based.
