Man and the Economy: Understanding Capitalist Economics and Catholic Social Teaching - 4086

Are we putting the “stupid” in the slogan, “It’s the economy, stupid”? Man and the Economy articulates the basic points of capitalist economics and Catholic social teaching—both of which are so commonly misunderstood, misapplied, or undervalued—and addresses how Catholics can bring the teachings of the Faith to bear in the economic decisions of daily life. With over forty-five years of experience as legal counsel, professor of law, and business executive, Leo L. Clarke wields practical knowledge and philosophical acumen in equal supply as he encourages a robust appreciation of the validity of the Catholic Church’s social doctrine as a “third way” of economic life, capable of cooperating with capitalist economies, but not enslaved to their assumptions and values.An eminently readable and engaging text, Man and the Economy will prove an invaluable guide for Catholics seeking to engage in the public square and in personal and professional economic activity.
