Balance and POV[edit]

Well, I tried rewriting the "Utopian Moral Economies" section to make it a little less POV, though it still needs work. What does everyone think? -- User:Brodie, 21/08/05

I cannot understand why anyone has seriously disputed the balance of this piece as I find it extremely fair. Of course, one can hardly mention the word 'Israel' in any context without having 'crimes against Palestine' brought into the equation (though never the reverse of course). But certainly the term moral economy is related to intent and surely it is without dispute that kibbutzim were organised along ideological and utopian concepts in terms of its own community at least. If we're going to dispute this point, then we might as well dispute the claims to a moral economy of any society that slaughters animals for food which wipes out ALL of the above examples —Preceding unsigned comment added by Augusta de grey (talkcontribs) 12:27, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The last paragraph is complete nonsense. There is nothing moral about Capitlalism full stop. So to try and divert attention from that system's intrinsically imoral nature with the fals dawns of green energy, fair trade etc. is Pathetic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.255.237.125 (talk) 15:24, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kibbutz as moral economy[edit]

Given what I've read about the relationship between Kibbutzes and surrounding Palestinian populations, even in their golden age, the suggestion that they were somehow a moral economy seems to be seriously lacking in...moral consistency.

I think kibbitz could be loosely defined under the heading 'moral economy' because of their intention to run their economies on a 'moral' basis (i.e. based around religious ethics rather than on neoclassical economics). That's not to saw they were 'moral' by our standards any more than Soviet collectivization. User: 15:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC) Brodie
