The world has seen several financial and economic crises in the
past few years. Psychological, ethical and philosophical levels of
causal analysis have been discussed, and in this context, an
interest in classical thinkers has emerged. The work of Aristotle
has influenced writers from Marx and Menger to Amartya Sen. This
book introduces us to Aristotle's thought on 'the economic' and on
its influences on economists. First, it focuses on Aristotles
ideas, situating Aristotle in his historical context, describing
his positions on the economic and analysing what kind of reality
the economic is, its relation with ethics and with politics. Then,
it determines what kind of science is concerned with the economic.
Later, it analyses related topics and shows the influence of
Aristotle's ideas on contemporary economists. It concludes by
highlighting the Aristotelian contributions to today's economy.
This scholarly volume offers important new insights into the
Aristotelian approach to the economy itself, as well as to the idea
of economics as a science, bringing Aristotle's views to bear on
the modern economy.
