Market and Society: Two Theoretical Frameworksby Milan Zafirovski
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Treating the market as a complex social category, and not just as a purely economic phenomenon, this book presents two frameworks for analyzing the market in relation to society. After presenting first the economic framework and then the sociological framework, the author combines the two and, when feasible and sensible, integrates them. The result is an original and enlightening examination of such subjects as the nature of the market, market laws, equilibrium, and prices. Book News Annotation:Zafirovski (a scholar whose academic affiliations are not described)
examines the market-society relationship, arguing for the necessity
of combining the seemingly conflicting catallactic (pure economic)
and sociological frameworks into a single interdisciplinary approach.
The volume's ten chapters address themes including the nature,
development, and branches of catallactics within traditional
economics; market laws in catallactics; the sociologic treatment of
market and social laws; the catallactic analysis of market
equilibrium; the relations of market and social equilibrium within
sociologics; the catallactic theory of value and prices; and the
sociologic conception of value and prices. The book includes
extensive notes and references.
