Based on fourteen empirical case studies, this far-reaching book
explains why and how markets are organized, through examining the
role of values and value work in markets.Economic values shape
markets, as do sustainability, safety, decency, public health and
democracy. Based on micro-process studies in a large number of
markets, this innovative volume presents a typology of strategic
responses to value plurality in markets and helps explain how such
value work influences market reform. Value plurality may be
reinforced and turned into open conflicts, but may also be played
down in configurations that neutralize, align, balance, or
hierarchize values. A multi-disciplinary work, this book will be of
interest to scholars and practitioners interested in markets,
particularly in the creating, organizing and development of
markets, including the consequences of such undertakings. It will
also be an invaluable resource to politicians and their advisors,
who often initiate market reforms or have to deal with the
consequences of previous reforms. Contributors: S. Alexius, S.
