This examines the ethical critiques from various mainstream philosophical perspectives viz. ethics of the underpinings of economic methodologies. Might be a good go to book for mining other details from it.

X Abstract

The primary aim of the text is to introduce the reader to the relationship between economics and ethics and to the application of economic ethics in the evaluation of the market. The reader will gain insight into:<br>* The ethical and methodological strategy of economics and criticism of the core assumptions that underpin the economic defense of free market operation.<br>* The characteristics of different ethical theories (utilitarianism, duty and rights ethics, justice and virtue ethics) that can be used to evaluate the free market.<br>* How to apply economics in conjunction with ethical theories to evaluate economic trends and policies that promote the free operation of the market and are subject to public debate.<br>These insights will help to develop the reasoning and analytical skills needed to criticize economic analysis as well as to apply ethical concepts to moral issues in economic policy.
