Love and money: A comment on the markets debate

Deirdre McCloskey

Feminist Economics, 1996, vol. 2, issue 2, 137-140

Abstract: It is true that economics needs a theory of moral sentiments along with an account of the nature and causes of the wealth of nations. Economics is damaged analytically by ignoring love, or care. But love is not always nice, and is sometimes a threat to freedom.
