Economy's Tension

Viac o knihe

Exploring the interplay between mutuality and impersonal trade, the author critiques the limitations of market-centric economic discourses. By analyzing diverse contexts from local ethnographies to global finance, the book reveals how competitive trade fosters calculative reasoning while often undermining the mutual relationships essential to economic stability. It redefines economic welfare and development, addressing issues like environmental degradation and wealth inequality, and proposes a comprehensive model for understanding and improving economic life.
