Contents:
Markets: mechanisms for creating good and exercising Christian responsibility -- Public finance: the role of government in the provision of goods and services -- Savior or Leviathan? the role of government in our daily lives -- Creation care: exercising good stewardship in the garden -- The big picture: issues in macroeconomic policy -- What do we know about monetary and fiscal policy? -- International economic relations: hope for the third world -- Work and vocation: what is in your hand? -- Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief: attending to the poor or worrying about income gaps? -- Going beyond markets: renewing neighborhoods, reconciling people and restoring hope -- Epilogue: Nine big ideas from economics that can help you be a good steward every day.
Subject: Unemployment. Environmental damage. Poverty. Economists Victor Claar and Robin Klay critically engage mainstream economic theory and policy recommendations to provide guidance for faithfully and responsibly addressing these and other important economic issues. Affirming that a just and prosperous society depends for its continued success on maintaining the right balance of power among three principal spheres--democratic governments, market-organized economies, and strong moral and cultural institutions--Claar and Klay demonstrate how Christian principles and values guide and undergird a flourishing and just economy. This text is for use in any course needing a survey of the principles of economics.
