商品描述

This book examines the concept of moral economy originally established by E.P. Thompson, focusing on the impact of religious norms on economic practice. With each chapter discussing a different empirical case study, the interrelations of the economy and religion are explored from antiquity through to the 20th century. The long-term trajectory and comparative perspective allows for moral economy to be seen in relation to ancient Greek commerce, medieval pawn-broking, Christian and Jewish economic ethics, urban social politics during the Plague, the Jesuit mission in Paraguay, the Ottoman Empire, religion in modern American capitalism, and Catholic attitudes toward taxation.

This book aims to provide insight into how moral thinking about the economy and economic practicehas evolved from a long historic perspective. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in economic history and cultural economics.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了E.P. Thompson最初建立的道德經濟概念,重點關注宗教規範對經濟實踐的影響。每一章節討論不同的實證案例研究,從古代到20世紀探討經濟與宗教之間的相互關係。長期的軌跡和比較的視角使道德經濟能夠與古希臘商業、中世紀當舖、基督教和猶太經濟倫理、瘟疫期間的城市社會政治、在巴拉圭的耶穌會任務、奧斯曼帝國、現代美國資本主義中的宗教以及天主教對稅收的態度等進行關聯性分析。

本書旨在提供對道德思考如何從長期歷史視角演變至今的經濟和經濟實踐的見解。對於對經濟歷史和文化經濟學感興趣的學生和研究者而言,這本書將具有重要的參考價值。
