Aristotle's Critique of Political Economy: With a Contemporary Application: Routledge Studies in the History of Economics

Autor Robert L. Gallagher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2020
This book presents a positive account of Aristotle’s theory of political economy, arguing that it contains elements that may help us better understand and resolve contemporary social and economic problems.




The book considers how Aristotle’s work has been utilized by scholars including Marx, Polanyi, Rawls, Nussbaum and Sen to develop solutions to the problem of injustice. It then goes on to present a new Social Welfare Function (SWF) as an application of Aristotle’s theory. In exploring how Aristotle’s theories can be applied to contemporary social welfare analysis, the book offers a study that will be of relevance to scholars of the history of economic thought, political theory and the philosophy of economics.

Recenzii

"This book is uniquely relevant for current debates on globalization, income distribution and social welfare. It is of particular interest to readers concerned with contemporary issues in philosophy and political economy."
- Leo Michelis, Ryerson University, Canada
‘This book is an outstandingly detailed study of Aristotle’s economic thought as it relates to his metaphysics, ethics and politics […] Gallagher puts forward provocative, well-argued ideas and hypotheses through a thorough and methodical analysis of Aristotle’s texts (almost all of them translated from the original Greek by Gallagher himself). […] Gallagher’s book introduces a stimulating approach to Aristotle’s political economy, shedding light on a possible diagnosis and a therapy for current economic problems.’
- Ricardo Crespo, Universidad Austral, Argentina, in History of Economic Thought and Policy
