Abstract: Economyths of Work, Value, and Success in America is an examination and critique of the economic mythologies about opportunity and prosperity that underlie our discussions and decision making about public policy. Elisa Jayne Bienenstock and Skaidra Smith-Heisters expose the rich mythology that has emerged since the founding of America, investigating themes such as individualism, self-determination, community, and collective action.
