    Abstract

    ![CDATA[In this paper we suggest that moral economy is a useful lens through which to develop a sociological understanding of family influence on the work of family business. To the best of our knowledge, there is no available literature that uses this approach in studies of family influence on family business. In using a moral economy lens, we suggest that family influence can be regarded as reflecting the moral norms and sentiments of the family. By influencing the work of family business, these moral norms and sentiments become everyday in having this effect. We provide findings to support our argument that our approach is new and novel in family business studies.]]
