PDF The Tale of Boiarynia Morozova: A Seventeenth-Century Religious Life by Margaret Ziolkowski in History

Description

The Church and the Market is a vigorous and lively defense of the market economy and a withering attack on all forms of state intervention. It covers labor unions; monopoly; money and banking; business cycles; interest; usury; and much more. Although it makes a particular point of noting the moral arguments of the market economy and that Catholics are of course perfectly at liberty to support it; its audience is much broader than Catholics alone. Readers of all religious traditions and none at all have praised The Church and the Market; first-place winner in the 2006 Templeton Enterprise Awards; as one of the most compelling and persuasive defenses of capitalism against its critics ever written.
