Resumen de Understanding the culture of markets: : A reflection

Solomon M. Stein

• This essay examines Virgil Storr�s (2013) Understanding the Culture of Markets, particularly the relationship between cultures and constitutions and the particulars of the ideal-typical �spirit� of capitalism. Culture cannot be viewed as a constitution, I argue, because of fundamental differences between the two types of guidance to conduct, both for the actors within them and the researchers studying them. I also consider possibly conflicting interpretations of the idea of the animating spirit(s) of a market in the context of Storr�s example of the economic culture of the Bahamas.
