Abstract

Previous research on moral economy has focused on modern and non-religious aspects of economic life, in line with the moral economists’ (Tawney, Polanyi, Thompson) original agenda. This volume aims to reassess the conceptual framework’s analytical potential in addressing these gaps. First, we want to take moral economy out of its container of modernity to assess its applicability in an epoch-spanning perspective from Ancient Greece to the twentieth century. The second aim is to connect religion to the debate on moral economy as one prominent source of moral norms that has informed and shaped actors’ perceptions of appropriateness, institutional development and practice in the economic sphere.
