Mainstream economics is rooted in classical utilitarianism, recommending that decision makers choose the options that are expected to generate the largest net benefits. For individuals, the standard economic model fails to incorporate the role of principles in decision-making, and also denies the possibility of true choice, which can be independent of preferences anEconomicsMoral and ethical aspectsEconomicsMoral and ethical aspects.174White Mark D.1971-948308MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823183403321Kantian ethics and economics3965298UNINA
