The market has long been criticized as an inappropriate method of allocation, encouraging market participants to misbehave for the sake of personal gain, and creating an impersonal new market culture. This book traces how such attacks have become more vociferous in recent centuries, especially with the rise of socialism. Most recently the critique has broadened to include toxic markets and the excessive marketization of activities hitherto external to the market. Analysing these major criticisms, as well as the value of regulation, utopias and virtue ethics as a means of avoiding future suspicions of markets, the author lays the groundwork for the reader's own assessment of the arguments, and concludes by posing suggestions of how best we might cope with flawed markets in the future. 606 $aEconomics$xHistory 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aHistory$xPhilosophy 606 $aPhilosophy and social sciences 606 $aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology 606 $aEconomic History 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 606 $aPhilosophy of History 606 $aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences 615 0$aEconomics$xHistory. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aHistory$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPhilosophy and social sciences. 615 14$aHistory of Economic Thought and Methodology. 615 24$aEconomic History. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 615 24$aPhilosophy of History. 615 24$aPhilosophy of the Social Sciences. 676 $a330.1509 700 $aRutherford$b Donald$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$061775 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254893203321 996 $aSuspicions of Markets$92242543 997 $aUNINA
