Culture as a constitution

In: Culture and Economic Action

Author

  • Arielle John

Abstract

This edited volume, a collection of both theoretical essays and empirical studies, presents an Austrian economics perspective on the role of culture in economic action. The authors illustrate that culture cannot be separated from economic action, but that it is in fact part of all decision-making.
