In recent years, economic life has become increasingly politicized:
now, every company has a 'philosophy', promising its customers some
ethical surplus in return for buying their products; consumers shop
for change; workers engage in individualized forms of employee
activism such as whistleblowing; and governments contribute to the
re-configuration of the economic sphere as a site of political
contestation by reminding corporate and private economic actors of
their duty to 'do their bit'. The Politics of Economic Life
addresses this trend by exploring the ways in which practices of
consumption, work, production, and entrepreneurship are imbued with
political strategy and ideology, and assesses the potentials and
perils of the politicization of economic activity for democracy in
the 21st century.
