Abstract
The chapter builds on various heterodox approaches to economics to explore a direction towards analyzing households within heterodox economic theory of social provisioning. The first section delineates five main theoretical foundations of households within heterodox economic perspectives. The second section discusses the analytical categories of the household as a going concern and the household as an institution. The chapter ends with directions for future research and theoretical developments.
