Our quest for prosperity has produced great output but not always great outcomes. The growing list of concerns includes climate and natural capital, abuse of wealth and market power, economic insecurity, gender bias and disparity, competitive and immoderate consumption, and unhealthful lifestyles. Fundamentally, when it comes to well-being, fairness, and the scope of our humanity, the modern economic system still leaves much to be desired. In turn, trust in business and the liberal market system (a.k.a. capitalism) has been declining and regulation has been rising. Thankfully, a variety of forces-civic, economic, and intellectual-have been probing for better alternatives. The contributions in this volume, coauthored by eminent philosophers, social scientists, and thoughtful business leaders, are submitted in this spirit. Mutuality, or the exchange of benefits, has been established as the prime principle of action and inter-action in addressing the chronic dilemma of human interdependence. Mutuality is a fundament in the social contract approach and it continues to serve us well. But, to address more robustly the concerns outlined above, we need to conceive a cultural economic system that is anchored on more than mutuality. In particular, we must help evolve an economic paradigm where mutuality is more systematically complemented by reasoned and elective morality. Otherwise the design of the state as protector and buffer between the market and society will remain the central (if inadequate) remedy. The essays in this volume integrate philosophy and social science to outline and explore concrete approaches to these important concerns emanating from business practice and theory

Preface

The essays in this volume outline and explore concrete approaches to concerns originating in the contemporary practice and theory of our liberal decentralized market-based economic system (aka capitalism). In this system, mutuality has been established and accepted as a prime principle in addressing our interdependence. Now, however, mounting regulations notwithstanding, doubts about the sufficiency of this principle are not only increasingly widespread, they are also increasingly confirmed. Accordingly, the essays here explore whether and how we might help the economic system evolve further into one where mutuality is more systematically complemented by morality. Some such evolution seems necessary and even unavoidable if the economy is to abet desirable outcomes and not only output. When it comes to economic power, its regulation was clearly meant to complement not substitute its education.

Philosophy has a natural role in informing such reflection, and the essays here integrate its moral perspectives with the analysis of social science. Indeed, one core feature of this volume is that, by design, the majority of the essays are co-authored by philosophers and social scientists. (It is not every day that reputed scholars of finance co-author with distinguished moral philosophers.) The aim has been to explore which assumptions of standard social science imported into the world of business merit scrutiny and evolutionhow even in a liberal economy moral ideals and reasoning might inform and influence economic action. What processes of reasoning (including those suggested in constructivist philosophy) offer promise? What organizational and systemic evolution may be necessary to enact a more philosophical (as opposed to a more political) economy? What future research and role for education is required to shape and correct actors interests, preferences, and conduct?

Moral reasoning more than material (economic and technical) reasoning is needed to help ground theory on why, how, and which economic actors might better integrate performance and progress. Moral logics are going to be indispensable because we need to reason about ends and not only means; and because we need to discuss multiple values, not all of which can be compared or exchanged. Material reasoning depends largely on prices, exchange rates, and marginal and dynamic effects. To this logic based on self-regarding consequences, moral reasoning can usefully integrate a logic based on other-regarding appropriateness.

The essays, developed expressly for this volume, are aimed primarily at scholars in the fields of management, strategy, economics and finance, decision science, marketing science, and organization theory. If business scholars are to help advance the economic system, then they must better address units of analysis typical in philosophy, viz. the individual, society, and humanity including other sentient creatures. Ideas such as fairness, well-being, humaneness, esteem, inclusion, justice, and progress all attach to these units of analysis. Scholars in moral and social philosophy with an interest in the dilemmas of the decentralized economic system will likewise find the essays useful.
