The Market Order in the Light of Morals
DAGMAR SMREKOVA, Filozoficky ustav SAV, Bratislava
The author focuses on two questions: Is there anything like the market
order, or the market turns a territory, dominated by the enterpreneurs-predators
enforcing their own rules?; Given the existence of market order, what role
plays the morality in it?
In the first part of the paper the nature of market order is analyzed.
Two opposing market conceptions are presented: that of market as a consciously
organized activity, planned and controlled centrally, resp. that of market
as an unconsciously coordina-ted activity, described by Hayek as the „spontaneous
order“. The author distinguishes between the sphere of the legal rules
and that of normative regulation of the beha-viour by menas of morals.
In the second part of the paper she is concerned with the question:
What is the relevance of moral norms in the market order given the fact,
that the moral choice requires additional costs? For consequently, in morally
damaged community those, who act morally, are almost always disadvanteged.
