Church and Ethical Responsibility in the Midst of World Economy

Details

Magisterial in scope and scrupulous in its investigation and attribution of sources, 'Church and Ethical Responsibility in the Midst of World Economy' will take its place as an important document that contributes much in terms of prophetic praxis - it challenges those who are comfortably complacent and unwilling to be disturbed.
