Christian Economic Ethics

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“In this valuable book, Catholic ethicist and economist Daniel K. Finn provides readers with a learned, comprehensive, and remarkably lucid survey of the terrain of Christian economic ethics, its sources, history, interdisciplinary dimensions, and implications for contemporary practice. Intellectually rich yet accessible to a broad audience, the text incisively charts fundamental questions and basepoints marking Christian ethics and contemporary economics, drawing them into mutually-illuminating, critical dialogue." —Christine Firer Hinze professor of theology Fordham University "Christian Economic Ethics by Daniel Finn provides a much-needed compendium of Christian thought about economic life across the ages. In addition to gathering the relevant texts, Finn offers a lucid discussion of the difficulties of bridging theological thought and modern economic understandings. The result is an invaluable introduction to theological reflection on economics.”
