    Adam Smith was Consistent in Both The Theory of Moral Sentiments and The Wealth of Nations on the Role of the Concept of Prudence (Self Interest): Das Utilitarian Economist view is the Problem

    Michael Emmett Brady

    Adam Smith was very consistent in both the Wealth of Nations and in The Theory of Moral Sentiments concerning the role of the virtue of prudence(self-interest) in both books. Like all advocates of virtue ethics, the first virtue that must be mastered had to be the Virtue of Prudence, which required the satisfaction of the necessary condition of being able to take care of oneself and family first, before any other vi…

    The Origin of Morality and the Making of the Moral Predicament

    Gennady Shkliarevsky

    Moral dimension is a characteristic feature of most transformative developments that have occurred in the course of human history.

    From Decentralization to Ethical Resilience: A Critical Reappraisal and Extension of Hayek’s Theory of Knowledge in Society

    Frans Lavdari

    Friedrich Hayek’s The Use of Knowledge in Society presents a seminal argument for the virtues of decentralized knowledge and the price mechanism, positing that markets, by leveraging dispersed, context-specific knowledge, can achieve efficient resource coordination without central oversight. Hayek’s work has deeply influenced economic thought, particularly in its defence of spontaneous order and its critique of cent…

    Incentives for Accuracy in Analyst Research

    Patricia Crifo, Hind Sami

    This paper develops a model to explore the dynamic interaction between incentive contracts and financial analysts' efforts in producing high-quality research, while accounting for both ethical and reputational concerns. Our findings indicate that compensation structures shaped by reputational and ethical considerations can give rise to incentive-related challenges. Specifically, an exclusive reliance on financial in…

    The Origins of a Rebellion: Religion, Land, and a Western Environmental Ethic

    Jerrold Long

Much of the Interior West is dominated by a particular culture that is the product of Mormon settlement in the Salt Lake Valley and subsequent expansion throughout the region. The teachings of early Mormon leaders contained significant threads of what today would be recognized as environmentalism. Despite these teac…

    The Machiavellian Challenge to Business Ethics

    George Bragues

    No political philosopher is better known in the business world than Niccolo Machiavelli. His fame resting on The Prince, the Renaissance Italian writer has often been featured in the popular business press, mostly to show the relevance of his realpolitik world-view to the sorts of issues that a contemporary manager is apt to face. However, the popular view of Machiavelli as a hard-headed thinker has been challenged …
