  • Ancient Economic Thought, Volume 1
    ANCIENT ECONOMIC THOUGHT This collection explores the interrelationship between economic practice and intellectual constructs in a number of ancient cultures. Each chapter presents a new, richer understanding of the preoccupation of the ancients with specific economic problems including distribution, civic pride, management and uncertainty and how they were trying to resolve them. The research is based around the different artifacts and texts of the ancient East Indian, Hebraic, Greek, Hellenistic, Roman and emerging European cultures which remain for our consideration today: religious works, instruction manuals, literary and historical writings, epigrapha and legal documents. In looking at such items it becomes clear what a different exercise it is to look forward, from the earliest texts and artifacts of any culture, to measure the achievements of thinking in the areas of economics, than it is to take the more frequent route and look backward, beginning with the modern conception of economic systems and theory creation. Presenting fascinating insights into the economic thinking of ancient cultures, this volume will enhance the reawakening of interest in ancient economic history and thought. It will be of great interest to scholars of economic thought and the history of ideas. B.B.Price is Professor of Ancient and Medieval History at York University, Toronto, and is currently doing research and teaching as visiting professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

We've had a great summer, nice weather, plenty of action and are sure that you are all looking forward to what Autumn and Winter will bring in this beautiful, and certainly not boring country of ours. There is still no place like "home" for a great holiday. Carol and I have just returned from six glorious days at a magnificent Game Park near Richard's Bay, called Phinda situated in Zululand. Great accommodation, game drives, bush dinners and no TV, telephones (cellular or otherwise!!!) to drive you crazy. Only the peace and quiet of the African bush. For those of you who have forgotten what the bush is like, I hope that the above will bring back a few memories. To quote from one of the comments in the guest book, "You can keep the rest of the world just give me the African bush." Nu, how about it???? Anyone thinking of that special trip to Africa is invited to call Ilan (Kessel Jr.) who will be happy to plan your trip. Brenda Miller left today for another of those wonderful trips to Russia.

  • The Just Price and Price-Controls in Jewish Law
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive New Wine in Old Flasks: the Just Price and Price-Controls in Jewish Law Makovi, Michael 30 January 2016 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/69119/ MPRA Paper No. 69119, posted 02 Feb 2016 16:04 UTC “New Wine in Old Flasks: the Just Price and Price-Controls in Jewish Law”1 Michael Makovi [email protected] Unaffiliated; recent BA graduate of Loyola University, New Orleans (2015, economics, BA, summa cum laude with university honors) Abstract: The halakhah (Jewish law) includes legislation aiming at might be called “social justice.” These halakhot (pl.) include the laws of ona'ah and hafka'at she'arim / hayyei nefesh – roughly analogous to the famous Medieval “just price” laws – as well as legal restrictions on middlemen and speculators. In the light of modern economics, these Jewish laws, like all attempts at price-fixing, are shown to be self-defeating; the means conflict with the ends sought. The conflict between religion and science is not limited to cosmology and biology, but may include economics as well. It is proposed that the halakhah be modified in such a way as to preserve – as much as possible – the integrity of both the halakhah and economic science alike; when an ethical system makes certain scientific presuppositions, it is sometimes possible to preserve the ethical system by disentangling it from its non-essential scientific presuppositions. Keywords: price controls; price fixing; just price; jewish business ethics; religious economics JEL Codes: A12, B11, D00, K20, P00, Z12 Louis Ginzberg once joked (1920: 97) that The devil, according to Shakespeare, quotes Scripture.
