This book concentrates upon how economic rationalities have been
embedded into particular historical practices, cultures, and moral
systems. Through multiple case-studies, situated in different
historical contexts of the modern West, the book shows that the
development of economic rationalities takes place in the meeting
with other regimes of thought, values, and moral discourses. The
book offers new and refreshing insights, ranging from the
development of early economic thinking to economic aspects and
concepts in the works of classical thinkers such as Thomas Hobbes,
John Locke and Karl Marx, to the role of economic reasoning in
contemporary policies of art and health care. With economic
rationalities as the read thread, the reader is offered a unique
chance of historical self-awareness and recollection of how
economic rationality became the powerful ideological and moral
force that it is today.
