Fairness as a constraint on profit seeking: comment
Article Abstract:
A 1986 study by Daniel Kahneman, Jack L. Knetsch and Richard Thaler explored the role of fairness in economic events. The researchers concluded that fairness would affect managerial behavior under conditions of market changes. A second study revealed that business executives and members of the general population had different attitudes toward fairness. The actions of managers as profit seekers would not necessarily reflect these different attitudes.
