Publisher: World & I, 2005ISSN: 1522-3191;.Subject(s): Economics | Economics -- Religious aspects | Religion and sociology | Yin-yangDDC classification: 050 Summary: "While unbounded invention and untiring industry require an economically permissive and competitive environment, elevating national life requires a protective and nurturing environment. Without the invention and industry that flourish under competition, we would have little wealth with which to elevate the nation. Yet, if we do not seek to elevate the nation, then it is in vain that we strive for invention and industry. Religious people are called to use their God-given talents to generate wealth, and then to employ that wealth out of love for one another. This requires 'healthy competition' supported by a social fabric based on religiously derived values." (WORLD & I) The article defines the "holy" economy, which views competition and economics through the yin/yang perspective.Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
