The Late- Scholastics, as they are called, were the first to engage in a systematic moral analysis of the ethical issues associated with trade and commerce.

Care is the foundation of organic life. But its fate in the economy is precarious and uncertain. In our hearts it’s honoured as an irreducible good. But in the market it’s treated as a second-class citizen – barely recognized in the relentless rush for productivity and wealth. How did we arrive in this dysfunctional place?

Diffidate di chi propone soluzioni facili. Per i problemi seri ne esistono poche e la disuguaglianza economica alle stelle è senz'altro un problema serissimo. Eppure, se non soluzioni, almeno strade giuste da percorrere se ne intravedono rispetto a quelle sbagliate imboccate sin qui.
