505 0  Preface -- Economist as preacher, or technocrat, or 
       dentist, or how the economists advise -- Re-reading of 
       Thorstein Veblen's The theory of the leisure class in the 
       third millennium, some remarks on conspicuous leisure and 
       consumption -- Alfred Marshall's puzzles (and how to solve
       them) -- Gunnar Myrdal's take on global inequalities -- 
       Relationship between economics and ethics in the thought 
       of Mohandas Gandhi, an attempt to understand contemporary 
       India -- Selected ethical and developmental issues in the 
       works of Deepak Lal & Alan Beattie -- Economics as a 
       positive science, reflections after reading Tomáš 
       Sedláček's Economics of good and evil -- Zygmunt Bauman's

520    The monograph repeatedly covers the question of the actual
       purpose of running an economic activity as well as the 
       problem of referring to ethical values by entrepreneurs 
       and the Aristotelian dilemmas differentiating between 
       needs and wants so as to better understand the evolution 
       of societies towards consumerism. On the other hand, we 
       referred also to the meaning of cultural factors, the role
       of religion or, in general terms, the significance of 
       informal institutions in the development of societies. We 
       tried to identify them in the context of the discussed 
       problems of wealth and poverty of nations, reminding the 
       reader in a way that the non-solved question has been a 
       major issue of economic research for years, put on a kind 
       of pedestal of the problems analysed in economics by the 
       father of the discipline - Adam Smith. In respective 
       chapters we referred to the concept present in modern 
       economic literature of stimulating development and 
       providing equal opportunities for less developed countries,
       which led to pondering about the role of the country in 
       the economy both in a national and global context.<br>
