Engendering Money and Morality in Asia

Abstract

The epilogue provides a summary of the overarching theme of the volume – money and morality – and its connections to neoliberal globalization and localization in contemporary Asia. The main findings from the chapters are summarized and discussed with respect to the emergence of a new moral regime of economy, work, and labour. Through this regime, three key contributions of the volume are highlighted in relationship to market economies and self-governance, money as ‘social currencies’, and the encroachment of money and morality on intimate relations.
