"In diesem Beitrag wird die Wirtschaftsethik von drei christlichen Haupttraditionen in Europa analysiert: die römisch-katholische, die evangelische und die ökumenische Tradition. Nach der Beschreibung der gemeinsamen und abweichenden Elemente der drei christlichen Traditionen, werden die Mängel, die freie Markttransaktionen auf zwei christliche Werte haben, untersucht: die Option für die Armen und die Verantwortung für die Schöpfung. Schließlich wird gefolgert, dass aufgrund dieser Mängel alle drei christlichen Traditionen die freie Marktwirtschaft nur unter bestimmten Bedingungen unterstützen können."

After defining several common and divergent elements of these different Christian traditions, we analyse the shortcomings of the free market operation concerning two common Christian values: the priority of the poor and stewardship of creation. We conclude that, because of these shortcomings, the Christian traditions will only provide conditional support to the free market." (author's abstract)... view less
