Synopsis

Explore how society shapes value, capital, and justice, from markets to public policy.

This edition examines how individual foresight and collective needs interact in economic life and government action.

Grounded in debates about capital, interest, and the role of the state, the book looks at how social and physical capital grow and change with society’s wants. It weighs practical and ethical views on distribution, education, welfare, and public responsibility, showing how policy choices affect real people.
