    Social Morphogenesis Margaret S. Archer Editor Morphogenesis and the Crisis of Normativity Morphogenesis and the Crisis of Normativity [email protected] Social Morphogenesis Series Editor: MARGARET S. ARCHER Centre for Social Ontology, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK Aims and scope: To focus upon ‘social morphogenesis’ as a general process of change is very different from examining its particular results over the last quarter of a century. This series ventures what the generative mechanisms are that produce such intense change and discusses how this differs from late modernity. Contributors examine if an intensification of morphogenesis (positive feedback that results in a change in social form) and a corresponding reduction in morphostasis (negative feedback that restores or reproduces the form of the social order) best captures the process involved. The series consists of 5 volumes derived from the Centre for Social Ontology’s annual workshops “From Modernity to Morphogenesis” at the University of Lausanne, headed by Margaret Archer.

  • Stefano Zamagni University of Bologna (ITALY)
    RECIPROCITY, CIVIL ECONOMY, COMMON GOOD Stefano Zamagni University of Bologna (ITALY) 1. An introductory justification This essay has a triple aim. First, to refresh a traditional Italian line of economic thought, which was rooted in the civic humanism of the thirteenth century and continued, with ups and downs, through the golden age of Italian Enlightenment philosophy in both its Milanese and Neapolitan variants. Second, to explain why it is not a good thing that interpersonal relations continue to be precluded from mainstream economics and why the discipline would do well to adopt a new scientific paradigm, the relational one. It is truly paradoxical that a field of study like economics, which from the very dawn of the discipline has been concerned essentially with the study of relations between men living in society (just think of such aspects as the production of goods and services, consumption choices, market exchanges, institutional arrangements, and so forth) has apparently never – save for the temporary detour into civil economy recounted in section 2 – felt the need to reckon with relationality. The economist’s agenda certainly does include the study of relations between man and nature, but it could never be held that this is the key to economic studies – not, that is, unless we want to reduce economics to a sort of social engineering, to remove it from the sphere of the “moral sciences.” Finally, I will indicate how the principle of reciprocity allows and favours the passage from the traditional welfare state to the civil welfare model. To avoid misunderstanding, one specification is in order from the outset.

Its purpose is to relocate economic theory to a domain where the connection between the virtues and economic decisions, as that connection is actually experienced in everyday life, is an organic component of theory rather than some sort of an optionally added ingredient. The goal is to help develop a virtue-based economic theory which connects virtues with the contents of economic activities of individuals, unincorporated and incorporated economic agents. The primary context is Catholic Social Teaching but other faith traditions (especially Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, and Confucianism) will also be explored for their construction of virtues in economic action. Special attention will be made to regulatory and policy issues in promoting economic justice.

INTRODUCTION The financial crisis which began in summer 2007 in the USA and then spread contagiously throughout the rest of the world, is systemic in nature. Indeed, it is not a local or regional crisis. It is the inevitable point of arrival of a process which, for more than thirty years, has changed at its very roots finance’s way of being and doing, thus undermining the very bases of that liberal social order which is at the core of western civilization. The nature of the causes of the crisis is two-fold: the immediate ones, which speak of the specific characteristics adopted in recent times by the financial mar- kets, and the remote ones, which blame aspects of the cultural matrix which accompanied the transition from industrial to financial capitalism. From the moment in which that epoch-making phenomenon which we call globalization began to take shape, finance not only constantly increased its quota of activity in the economic sphere, but it has progressively con- tributed to transform both people’s cognitive maps and their value systems. It is to this latter that one refers today in speaking of the financialization of society. ‘Finance’, literally, is everything that has an end; if this escapes from its historical river-bed, finance can only produce perverse effects.

  • Markets, Money and Capital : Hicksian Economics for the Twenty-First
    This page intentionally left blank Markets, Money and Capital Sir John Hicks (1904–89) was a leading economic theorist of the twen- tieth century, and along with Kenneth Arrow was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1972. His work addressed central topics in economic theory, such as value, money, capital, and growth. An important unifying theme was the attention to economic rationality ‘in time’ and his acknowledg- ment that apparent rigidities and frictions might exert a positive role as a buffer against excessive fluctuations in output, prices, and employment. This emphasis on the virtue of imperfection significantly distances Hicksian economics from both the Keynesian and monetarist approaches. Containing contributions from distinguished theorists in their own right (including three Nobel Prize-winners), this volume examines Hicks’s intellectual heritage and discusses how his ideas sug- gest a distinct approach to economic theory and policy-making. It will be of great interest to scholars and students of economic theory and the history of economic thought. roberto scazzieri is Professor of Economics at the University of Bologna, a Senior Member of Gonville and Caius College and Life Member of Clare Hall, Cambridge. amartya sen is a Nobel laureate and Professor of Economics and Philosophy at Harvard University. stefano zamagni is Professor of Economics at the University of Bologna and Adjunct Professor of International Economics at Johns Hopkins University.

  • The Civil Economy Perspective for a Participatory Society Stefano Zamagni[1] 1
    Enhancing Socio-Economic Integration: The Civil Economy Perspective for a Participatory Society Stefano Zamagni[1] 1. Introduction and purpose One of the most penetrating dangers of our time was described by the 20th century writer C.S. Lewis as “chronological snobbery”, that is, the uncritical acceptance of something merely because it belongs to the intellectual trends of our age. Avoiding such a danger requires both intelligibility of res novae and moral commitment. Across the globe we are seeing two parallel developments unfold, which undermine the realization of a truly participatory society both within and across the nations of the world. First of all, a growing concentration of wealth and a centralization of power which divide societies along old and new lines. Secondly, the division between the “winners” and “losers” of global integration and technological progress is threatening to derail growth. In his Introduction to the present volume, Pierpaolo Donati writes: “We are asked to outline and implement a kind of society that can ensure the full participation of all its members, not simply in terms of compensation or compassion for the most disadvantaged, but in terms of a just and sustainable societal configuration in which people have the opportunity to pursue a good life for themselves and for everyone else”. In what follows, I will speak in favour of the civil economic paradigm as a concrete and original way to cope with the intellectual challenge posed by Donati. To this end, I deem it proper to consider a few stylized facts characterizing the present time. Firstly, the political system has not yet been able to significantly modify the financial institutions responsible of the present crisis.
