Book Description:
|
The Catholic Church has long been one of the most important - but least understood - authorities on capitalism and democracy. Papal Economics takes readers on a tour through the Catholic Church's social teaching on capitalism and socialism, wealth and poverty, democracy and authoritarianism, and more. This incisive analysis shows that the Church displays a profound understanding of democracy and - perhaps more surprising - strong support for free markets.
