Abstract
As we observed in the introductory chapter, the relationship between market and society is a hotly debated issue in the social sciences. The ideological overtones of the debate concern the contribution of the market to welfare—usually conceptualized in material terms—and to well-being. I surmise that both market and society can contribute to welfare and to well-being.
With John Finch and Robert McMaster.
