James Stacey Taylor

Opis

Develops a taxonomy of the positions that are held by critics of markets. Taylor argues that market debates derailed because they were conducted in accord with market, rather than academic, norms—and that this demonstrates that market thinking should not govern academic research.

Recenzje

"In sum, this is an excellent book that does a tremendous job of clarifying where the action should be rather than where it is mistakenly taken to be in talking about the ethics of markets. In this sense the book does exactly what it says on the cover: it puts that debate back on the tracks. It does so in the service of what the author rightly thinks should be the norm governing academic work, namely aiming to secure a better understanding of the issues."
David Archard in Journal of Applied Philosophy

"Taylor's incisive book should be required reading for all graduate students in philosophy, and perhaps in many other academic fields."
J. Angelo Corlett in The Philosophical Quarterly
