Summary

Inequality, unemployment, degradation of the environment: these and other practical economic problems reflect faulty economic theories. People have been led astray by ideas that are fundamentally mistaken as well as by ideas that made some sense in the past but are unsuited to current times. The Catholic Church has an extensive body of teachings on economic and social matters, too little known even among Catholics, which offers practical alternatives to the economics of the jungle. This book provides clear explanations of major errors in conventional economic thinking and shows how the church's teachings can point us in a better direction.
