A chapter in Ethical Issues in Economics, 1997, pp 1-8 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This book focuses on a number of ethical issues and ethical values, as well as moral norms and moral dispositions relevant to economic theory, and in particular to economic agents’ beliefs, behaviour and activity. And, as the morality of individuals influences their economic conduct and choices, their morality is also clearly relevant to socio-economic policies and outcomes.
