• (De)commodification, Consumer Culture, and Moral Economy (2003, background): “This paper derives from a wider project on `moral economy', which is concerned with the moral sentiments and norms that influence economic behaviour and how these are in turn influenced, compromised, or overridden by economic forces (Sayer, 2000).”
• ‘Moral economy’: its conceptual history and analytical prospects (2015, background): “The current crisis of the welfare state reflects normative disorder as much as it does fiscal constraints and proliferating bureaucracy (Sayer 2000, 97).”
• Moral economy: Rethinking a radical concept (2016, background): “Some authors have also deployed the term to reflect on alternative political projects that might foster higher degrees of solidarity and ‘embedded sociality’ (Sayer, 2000; Bolton and Laaser, 2013).”
• Before “Fair Trade”: Empire, Free Trade, and the Moral Economies of Food in the Modern World (2007, background): “Thompson’s specific argument amongst fellow historians; some criticised him for exaggerating the role of women, others for minimising economic dynamics and interests, yet others defended the influence of customary rights ( Bohstedt, 1992; Charlesworth and Randall, 1987; Gailus, 1994).”
• Work, employment and society through the lens of moral economy (2013, background): “To accomplish this, economic practices are understood as necessarily complex, enmeshed and shaped by moral sentiments and norms, while the material arrangements of markets and economic practices act to undermine and re-shape moral norms (Sayer, 2000).”

• Building Food Democracy: Exploring Civic Food Networks and Newly Emerging Forms of Food Citizenship (2012, methodology): “However, in his attempt to ‘humanize’ economics, andrew sayer (2000) draws on adam smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments,5 and william Booth’s more recent understanding of all economies as moral economies (1994),6 to argue for a re-conceptualization of 312 Katerina Psarikidou and Bronislaw…”
• Moral economies of food and geographies of responsibility (2009, background): “From this perspective, ‘moral economy’ emerges as the study of how economic activities of all kinds are influenced and structured by moral dispositions and norms, and how those norms may be compromised, over-ridden or reinforced by economic pressures (Sayer 2000, 2).”
