abstract = "There is a great deal of magic in invisible hand social theory. The transformation of vice into virtue is amazing enough, but there is also the market{\textquoteright}s apparent self-organization, and the mysterious distance between cause and effect that can lead to sudden booms and shattering collapses. The uncanny deferral of agency in the {\textquoteleft}invisible hand{\textquoteright} metaphor magically resolves the apparent discord between secular capitalism and religious ideas of Providence. The beauty of its imaginary moral machine attracts new adherents in a self-reinforcing feedback loop.",
