Aquinas and the Market
Book • 2018
In *Aquinas and the Market: Toward a Humane Economy*, Mary L. Hirschfeld seeks to bridge the intellectual divide between economists and theologians.
She argues that an economics rooted in Thomistic thought can integrate economic insights with a broader understanding of human flourishing, offering a critical perspective on the ethical shortcomings of modern capitalism.
Hirschfeld proposes a humane economy where material wealth serves human happiness rather than being an end in itself.
