It is argued that the normative and ethical presuppositions of standard economics render the discipline incapable of addressing an important class of problems involving human choices. Economics adopts too thin an account both of human motivation and of 'the good' for individuals and for society. It is recommended that economists and policy makers look back to ancient philosophy for guidance on the good life and good society considered in terms of eudaimonism, or human flourishing. Economics, Ethics, and Ancient Thought begins by outlining the limitations of the normative and ethical presuppositions that underpin standard economic theory, before going on to suggest alternative normative and ethical traditions that can supplement or replace those associated with standard economic thinking. In particular, this book considers the ethical thought of ancient thinkers, particularly the ancient Greeks and their concept of eudaimonia, arguing that within those traditions better alternatives can be found to the rational choice utilitarianism characteristic of modern economic theory and policy. This volume is of great interest to those who study economic theory and philosophy, history of economic thought and philosophy of social science, as well as public policy professionals

This essay introduces or re-acquaints readers with the work of Wes Jackson and The Land Institute in Salinas, Kansas. At the center of this work is an effort to develop perennial poly-culture as an alternative to industrial agriculture. The latter dominant model of food and fiber production is shown to involve severe problems in terms of short-run ecological costs and long-run sustainability. It is also argued that the perennial poly-culture model has much to recommend it to radical economists as a corrective to capitalist inefficiency. Finally, notwithstanding Jackson's facile criticism of Marx, it is argued that Marx's own writing actually anticipates Jackson's agro-ecological critique of capitalism.

Major League Baseball currently faces a crisis calling for radical reform of its operations. This article critically examines two recent reform proposals that call for a luxury tax on team salaries combined with revenue sharing that would bring greater financial and competitive parity among and between the league's constituent teams. It is argued that these reforms do not go far enough in reestablishing the basis for fan loyalty that is the essence of the national pastime. A far superior reform model would have the teams become the property of the municipalities in which they operate, combined with a reserve clause that ties players to particular teams for their playing careers. A predetermined salary structure would make player compensation a function of longevity rather than the market. Salary cost control, in turn, would enable teams to price tickets at levels that would enable more families of modest means to attend games.
