Book Synopsis Contested Commodities by : Margaret Jane Radin
Book excerpt: How far should society go in permitting people to buy and sell goods and services? Radin addresses this controversial issue in an exploration of contested commodification. As a philosophical pragmatist, the author argues for an incomplete commodification, in which some contested things can be bought and sold, but only under regulated circumstances.
