First published in 1982, this collection of essays is a reproach to
a form of the sociology of religion that treats people as the
passive objects of impersonal social influences. In opposition to
this, the author seeks to assert an active voice style of thinking
about the relations between individuals and their cultural
environment, whether in economics, history or literary criticism.
This collection is assembled with the guiding principle that all
the essays touch upon the borderland between economic values and
personal judgements of quality. Several essays illustrate the theme
from the place of economics in anthropology and the place of
economic behaviour in sociological and cultural criticism. The
essay on 'Cultural bias' suggests a systematic method of analysis
for investigating social influences on judgement and choice.
