Philosophy, Catholic Social Teaching and the Economy

Catalog description

This course will read the work of 20th-century German and French thinkers alongside Catholic social teaching. This reading will provide the resources to call into question the paradigm of neoclassical economic theory (coupled with the ascendency of neoliberalism), and to open up the possibility of a different future, one that is driven by convictions about how a human being and a human community can flourish.
