L’économie est communément considérée comme une puissance maléfique opposée aux « vraies » valeurs, celles de l’humanité, de la socialité, de la nature. Or, le mot d’économie renvoie primitivement aux principes de santé, d’harmonie, de bonne organisation et ce n’est pas par hasard qu’il partage son étymologie avec celui d’écologie. En revenant aux sources de la notion, ce petit ouvrage montre qu’il n’y a pas de « valeurs économiques », que l’économie traduit dans son langage nos valeurs sociales et qu’il importe donc à chacun de s’en saisir.

Alfani argues that the position of the rich and super-rich in Western society has always been intrinsically fragile; their very presence has inspired social unease. In the Middle Ages, an excessive accumulation of wealth was considered sinful; the rich were expected not to appear to be wealthy. Eventually, the rich were deemed useful when they used their wealth to help their communities in times of crisis. Yet in the twenty-first century, the rich and the super-rich have been exceptionally reluctant to contribute to the common good in times of crisis.
