It builds on a basic characterization of the question of ethics in order to introduce responsibility as a constitutive element for a new determination of economic knowledge. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on the metaphysical tradition of philosophy, the book explores the distinction between \"operability-based-responsibility\" and \"end-in-itself-based responsibility\" and also considers what is tentatively called \"being-related responsibility\". By presenting these arguments about the notion of economic responsibility, the book contributes to the growing calls for ethical questions to not be merely complementary to the ongoing discourse of economic sciences, but rather to sit at its core, in such a way as to restore the intrinsic ethical dimension of economics itself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book marks a significant contribution to the literature on the philosophy of economics, applied ethics more broadly, and the critical discourse concerning mainstream economics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRalf Lüfter\u003c\/strong\u003e is Assistant Professor of Moral Philosophy at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano.
