Description
Can the "open" market system with its inevitable creation of a nation of rich and poor, winners and losers, be held to be moral? The enterprise culture is now more firmly on the agenda than in the past and all three major political parties emphasize the importance of the "open market". In this pioneering volume of essays, contributors from a variety of disciplines examine the moral significance of attempts to construct a world of enterprise. This book should be of interest to undergraduates, postgraduates and academics in the field of sociology, politics, cultural studies and religious studies.
