    The missing sector (Rowe and Bollier)

    ByEdward Eggleston May 20, 2020

    “One of the signal failures of market culture is the inability to declare what is not for sale. On the whole, as a society we reject the idea that babies, votes, or body parts should be bought and sold like soybeans. But these are aberrations from the general rule that everything is legitimately for sale. One principle of a commons-based society, by contrast, is that certain things are off limits to the market — the air we breathe, the languages we speak, and the genetic information of which our bodies are composed, to name a few.” (Rowe and Bollier)

    Remarks on the ideas of Amartya Sen (T. Rogan)

    ByEdward Eggleston May 12, 2020

    “Moral economies are not neutral, given, unvarying or universal. They are contested and evolving. Each person is more than a cold calculator of rational utility. Societies aren’t just engines of prosperity. The challenge is to make non-economic norms affecting market conduct legible, to bring the moral economies amid which market economies and administrative states function into focus…” (T. Rogan)
