Abstract
Professor Ulrich presents three core theses:
(1) Economics is not an end-in-itself but a means to the good life and human coexistence. Rational economics includes and does not exclude meaning and justice.
(2) There is no "free" enterprise system which is free of ethical and political prerequisites.
(3) There is a need for emancipatory economic citizenship rights.
