The Elgar Companion To Economics and Philosophy

Edited by John Davis, Alain Marciano and Jochen Runde

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The Elgar Companion to Economics and Philosophy aims to demonstrate exactly how these two important areas have always been linked, and to illustrate the key areas of overlap. The contributors are well-known and distinguished authors from a variety of disciplines, who have been invited both to survey and to provide a personal assessment of current and prospective future states of their respective areas of philosophical interest.
