N2  - The Handbook of Economics and Ethics" is a collection of 75 original entries on the intersections between economics and ethics. The collection has a pluralist character, including topics such as efficiency and prices as well as feminism and realism, and ranging from Adam Smith to Karl Marx, while including topical issues such as globalization and corporate social responsibility. The pluralist character of the book implies that it goes beyond the conventional positive/normative dichotomy in economics, showing the wide variety in which economic method, data analysis, theory, argumentation, and presentation are imbued both with facts and with values."-- Publisher
