Description
There's No Such Thing as "The Economy" by Samuel A. Chambers explores the paradoxical relationship between economics and values. In this thought-provoking collection of essays, Chambers challenges the dominant view that questions of morality are outside the realm of economic study. Chambers argues that the discipline of modern economics is built on a flawed assumption: that it can separate the question of value from its broader inquiry into the economic. However, he contends that this separation is impossible, as economic forces shape and maintain relations of value. This book delves into the logic of capital to reveal the unbreakable link between economics and value. By examining the fundamental principles of capitalism, Chambers sheds light on a crucial aspect of our understanding of the economy.
