Greed, lust & gender

by Nancy Folbre

Moral and ethical aspectsEconomicsMenLustAvariceEconomic conditionsSex differencesWomen

The history of Western economic ideas shows that men have given themselves more cultural permission than women for the pursuit of both economic and sexual self-interest. This book brings women's work, their sexuality, and their ideas, into the center of the dialectic between economic history and the history of economic ideas.--[book jacket].
