Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economics can help us understand the evolution and development of religion, from the market penetration of the Reformation to an exploration of today's hot-button issues including evolution and gay marriage. This startlingly original (and sure to be controversial) account of the evolution of Christianity shows that the economics of religion has little to do with counting the money in the collection basket and much to do with understanding the background of today's religious and political divisions. Since religion is a set of organized beliefs, and a church is an organized body of worshippers, it's natural to use a science that seeks to explain the behavior of organizations—economics—to understand the development of organized religion. The Marketplace of Christianity applies the tools of economic theory to illuminate the emergence of Protestantism in the sixteenth century and to examine contemporary religion-influenced issues, including evolution and gay marriage. The Protestant Reformation, the authors argue, can be seen as a successful penetration of a religious market dominated by a monopoly firm—the Catholic Church. The Ninety-five Theses nailed to the church door in Wittenberg by Martin Luther raised the level of competition within Christianity to a breaking point. The Counter-Reformation, the Catholic reaction, continued the competitive process, which came to include "product differentiation" in the form of doctrinal and organizational innovation. Economic theory shows us how Christianity evolved to satisfy the changing demands of consumers—worshippers. The authors of The Marketplace of Christianity avoid value judgments about religion. They take preferences for religion as given and analyze its observable effects on society and the individual. They provide the reader with clear and nontechnical background information on economics and the economics of religion before focusing on the Reformation and its aftermath. Their analysis of contemporary hot-button issues—science vs. religion, liberal vs. conservative, clerical celibacy, women and gay clergy, gay marriage—offers a vivid illustration of the potential of economic analysis to contribute to our understanding of religion.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any attempt to use the Bible as a basis for addressing contemporary economic issues needs to recognise the fundamental differences in underlying philosophy between economic theory and Christian belief. Neo-classical economic theory embodies a view of the world and of human nature, derived from the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century, which has become immensely influential in recent times. 'Economic man' is a rational, independent being, set in an environment of scarcity, but able to improve his welfare by transactions in a market economy. This 'anthropology' is explained and examined systematically in this book, following broadly the pattern of an economics textbook, and drawing on some recent work in methodology. In each chapter, a second part presents a contrasting view of the same subject matter drawn from the Bible as interpreted by contemporary scholars. This gives a radically different account of human life and well-being, centred on the community and its relationship with God, in which prosperity, abundance and hope for the future are divine blessings and gifts. Despite the wide gaps between economic theory and Christian belief some points of contact can be made, and there are suggestions as to how a dialogue between them might be conducted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this short, hard-hitting volume, Roelf Haan critiques the assumptions that underlie our current economic system and makes the case for a truly biblical alternative. / The Economics of Honor walks through the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, but it blazes an unfamiliar path. Through careful exegesis Haan draws economic insights from surprising passages and challenges conventional interpretations of some of Jesus' parables. Haan also draws insights from a wide-ranging number of thinkers, including John Calvin, Jacques Ellul, Ren Girard, Germaine Greer, and several Latin American liberation theologians. / A provocative and fascinating read, The Economics of Honor challenges accepted economic wisdom and exchanges it for groundbreaking, well-reasoned arguments on how the Bible would have us live today.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Christianity and Economics written by Paul Oslington and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many important contemporary debates cross economics and religion, in turn raising questions about the relationship between the two fields. This book, edited by a leader in the new interdisciplinary field of economics and religion and with contributions by experts on different aspects of the relationship between economics and Christianity, maps the current state of scholarship and points to new directions for the field. It covers the history of the relationship between economics and Christianity, economic thinking in the main Christian traditions, and the role of religion in economic development, as well as new work on the economics of religious behavior and religious markets and topics of debate between economists and theologians. It is essential reading for economists concerned with the foundations of their discipline, historians, moral philosophers, theologians seeking to engage with economics, and public policy researchers and practitioners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does economics have to do with Christian origins? Why study such a connection? First of all, the New Testament makes many direct references to economic issues. But, second, the economy affects every other aspect of life (family, religion, community, work, health, and politics). To understand what it was like to live in a society, one must understand what the economy was doing. The study of the economy includes not only the goods and services of a society but also human labor and its control. For one, it entails the size of the pie of goods. (How prosperous was first-century Galilee?) But the study of economy also takes account of the slice of the pie that each family obtained. (How fair was the economy to each family?) Those involved in the quest for the historical Jesus have discovered that the ancient economy is a major point of dispute among various interpreters. Was the early Jesus movement a socioeconomic protest? Or was it primarily a religious reform? These two approaches understand Jesus in remarkably different ways. This volume seeks to guide readers through some of the most controversial issues raised in the last twenty years on this important topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre examine la relation entre la politique, le développement économique et la religion tout en soulignant la prévalence des normes internationales d'interaction religieuse avec les institutions de développement et de pensée. Il décrit le désaccord et la rupture du lien entre les domaines du développement et de la foi et son intégration. Il montre comment la vision politique de la politique religieuse et du développement évolue dans différentes parties du monde en citant ce qui se passe dans plusieurs pays comme le Maroc, le Guatemala, les Philippines, le Kenya et le Cambodge. Accent mis sur le côté religieux de l'économie mondiale et sur la politique plus large du développement. Les deux acteurs religieux les plus importants et les plus influents sont l'Église catholique et l'islam. Le capitalisme mondial et le christianisme sont des systèmes dévots. Sur la base des faits, dans le passé, le christianisme était essentiel à la formation du capitalisme et a continué à avoir des liens étroits avec lui. Cependant, certaines des oppositions les plus vigoureuses au capitalisme international ont commencé au milieu du christianisme. En harmonie avec les convictions religieuses, les deux se sont développés de manière constante, même si le christianisme a promu l'idée d'une fin poignante et imminente, liée au concept de nature humaine. L'objectif principal est de révéler davantage la perspective chrétienne, car elle résiste à l'accumulation appropriée de richesse et de pouvoir et aux dommages associés aux relations sociales. Il s'oppose également au recouvrement illimité des dettes, une caractéristique du capitalisme moderne liée à son nihilisme. Le christianisme est la divinité de l'homme dans l'économie lorsqu'il promeut la libre concurrence et la protection des droits de propriété et encourage les gens à partager un bon comportement. L'économie religieuse est un nouveau domaine de la recherche économique. Ce livre a deux objectifs. Il regarde en arrière parce qu'il retrace le contexte historique et social de l'industrie, et il regarde vers l'avenir parce qu'il examine les données et les thèmes de recherche fournis aux économistes pour enquêter sur la religion dans le monde aujourd'hui. De nombreux aspects ont contribué à l'impact économique de la religion : (1) de nouveaux développements dans les modèles théoriques qui incluent des exemples de marchés religieux et des modèles évolutifs d'éléments religieux ; (2) une activité expérimentale portant sur l'identification économique d'une nouvelle façon d'évaluer les causes sous-jacentes du comportement religieux ; (3) une nouvelle étude dans l'histoire de l'économie religieuse qui considère la religion comme une évolution indépendante plutôt que dépendante ; et (4) d'autres recherches sur la religion en dehors des pays occidentaux. Sur la base de ces développements, ce livre aborde quatre thèmes - premièrement, la discrimination religieuse, la pluralité, le contrôle et la croissance économique ; deuxièmement, les marchés religieux, les articles de club, les différentes marques et réseaux ; troisièmement, une identification qui inclut la compétition nationale et la générosité ; quatrièmement, conflit et coopération dans le développement de la religion et de l'économie. En examinant ce domaine d'étude ancien mais paradoxal, le livre pose des questions sans réponse pour les économistes religieux à considérer pour les années à venir.

Book excerpt: God does not appear in the modern market. For most economists this is as it should be. It is in no way necessary, according to modern economic theory, to consider God when thinking about economy. Indeed, the absence of God in economic matters is viewed as necessary to the great advances in modern economy. The difficulty with modern market economies, however, is that human livelihood is also left out of the theory and practice of the market economy. ?"I propose to bring the church's teaching about God, the doctrine of the Trinity, to bear on the masked connections between God and economy. I will treat the Trinity as the way of understanding what the Bible calls the 'economy of God.'?
