Pre-Owned Catholic Practice in North America: Working Alternatives: American and Catholic Experiments in Work and Economy (Paperback)

Working Alternatives explores economic life from a humanistic and multidisciplinary perspective with a particular eye on religions implications in practices of work management supply production remuneration and exchange. Its contributors draw upon historical ethical business and theological conversations considering the sources of economic sustainability and justice. The essays in this book--from scholars of business religious ethics and history--offer readers practical understanding and analytical leverage over these pressing issues. Modern Catholic social teaching--a 125-year-old effort to apply Christian thinking about the implications of faith for social political and economic circumstances--provides the key springboard for these discussions.
