520    "With the advent of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, the 
       economics profession itself entered into a crisis of 
       legitimacy from which it has yet to emerge. Despite the 
       obviousness of their failures, however, economists 
       continue to rely on the same methods and to proceed from 
       the same underlying assumptions. André Orléan challenges 
       the neoclassical paradigm in this book, with a new way of 
       thinking about perhaps its most fundamental concept, 
       economic value. Orléan argues that value is not bound up 
       with labor, or utility, or any other property that 
       preexists market exchange. Economic value, he contends, is
       a social force whose vast sphere of influence, amounting 
       to a kind of empire, extends to every aspect of economic 
       life. Markets are based on the identification of value 
       with money, and exchange value can only be regarded as a 
       social institution. Financial markets, for example, 
       instead of defining an extrinsic, objective value for 
       securities, act as a mechanism for arriving at a reference
       price that will be accepted by all investors. What 
       economists must therefore study, Orléan urges, is the hold
       that value has over individuals and how it shapes their 
       perceptions and behavior."--Jacket.
