A study combining economic issues with ethical and social reflection. Leopold Caro presents social economics as a science that evaluates economic phenomena in the context of the common good. He discusses, among other things, the history of economic doctrines, the basic categories of economics (labor, capital, property, money), the functioning of economic institutions, and social policy issues such as labor rights, social insurance and the role of the state.
