Description
Market Ethics and Practices, c. 1300-1850 explores how market ethics evolved over time, from rituals of exchange to formal regulations.
The book examines key subjects such as medieval attitudes towards merchant activities, the concept of the "common good", Adam Smith's moral capitalism, and the intersection of religious and capitalist ethics in historical contexts.
Through microstudies of household and market relations, informal networks, and commercial litigation, this book provides insights into pre-modern economic historiography and points towards new debates on the significance of market ethics for our collective economic future.
