Description:
The special issue addresses Schmoller's
multi-faceted work »The Idea of Justice in Political Economy« and recent research
related to this article. In his work, Schmoller historicizes and puts into context
the concept of justice. He points to a blind spot, something even modern conceptions
of morality are prone to ignore: namely, that morality is that construct comprising
both the good life of individuals and the social virtue of justice. Schmoller's
perception fascinates readers today, much like it did in the late 19th century.
