The Philosophy of the Practical: Economic and Ethic is a book written by Benedetto Croce, an Italian philosopher and historian. The book explores the relationship between ethics and economics, arguing that economic decisions and actions are inherently ethical in nature. Croce argues that economic activity is not simply a matter of maximizing profits or achieving material gain, but is also a moral activity that involves making choices and taking responsibility for their consequences. The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on economic theory and the second part focuses on ethics. In the first part, Croce discusses the nature of economic activity, the role of markets, and the relationship between supply and demand. He also explores the concept of value and the ways in which it is created and exchanged in the market. In the second part, Croce delves into the ethical implications of economic activity, discussing issues such as social justice, the distribution of wealth, and the responsibilities of individuals and institutions in the economic sphere. Overall, The Philosophy of the Practical: Economic and Ethic is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between economics and ethics. Croce's insights and arguments challenge readers to think critically about the moral dimensions of economic activity and to consider the ways in which economic decisions can have profound ethical implications.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
