This book, written by an economics scholar, analyzes the relationship between certain concepts in contemporary ethical reasoning and those that have historically informed economic theory. The author argues that the "subjective factor" in economicsâ"the human element that influences valuation and decision-makingâ"has been shaped by contrasting and evolving ethical concepts throughout history. By tracing the development of utilitarianism and idealism in English ethics from the 17th century to the 19th century, the author demonstrates how economic theory has drawn on these ethical frameworks to explain economic phenomena. The work highlights the influence of ethical reasoning on economic thought, revealing the deep interconnectedness of these two disciplines and providing a new perspective on the foundations of economic theory.
