Document Summary
Sagoff: excerpt from social conflict and environmental law: ethics, economics, and equity. We act as consumers to get what we want for ourselves. We act as citizen to achieve what we think is right or best for the community. Are the goals we set for ourselves as consumers the same as we set for ourselves as citizens?. No they are not, we vote for the good of society but act as consumers for us. Role as consumer and citizen should be independent and distinct. Shusky: social science: between natural science and the humanities. Anthropology is the study of human societies, cultures, and their development. Karl marx argued that the value of goods was determined by the amount of labour required to produce them, other economists argued that the value of something was determined by the consumer. Psychologists perceive behaviour on the basis of personality.
