xv, 415 pages ; 23 cm, \"Alternatives to Economics outlines the Christian thought system and its value as an alternative to secular social science in the development of socio-economic policies. Co-authors, Clive and Cara Beed demonstrate how the Christian thought system could be applied to issues such as distribution of wealth and the growing unemployment problem. The Christian thought system provides an alternative way of describing, explaining, and formulating policies for socio-economic matters from that of secular social science.

This book seeks to present these Christian thought system \"tools\" to both Christians and non-Christians.\"--Publisher's website, Includes bibliographical references (pages 361-401) and index, Christian Belief as Relevant to Modern Socio-Economic Life -- Social Science's Disregard of Christian Thought -- Objections Concerning the Primary Source of Christian Belief -- Objections Concerning Fundamentalism -- Judeo-Christian Sources of Socio-Economic Intentions -- Christian Principles for the Organization of Employment -- Catholic Social Thought -- Protestant Evangelical Thought -- Applying the Principles to Employment Organization -- Making Work Ownership Effective -- Biblical Exegesis-Based Principles for Economic Distribution -- Deriving Normative Intentions for Economic Distribution -- Economic Distributional Intentions of the Mosaic Law -- Jesus' Teachings Relating to Distribution and the Intentions of the Law -- James Barr on Jesus and the Law -- Further Implications of Distributional Intentions of the Law -- Christian Explanations for Unemployment -- A Christian Explanation for Unemployment -- Comparison of Orthodox Economics' and Christian Reasons for Unemployment -- Socio-Economic Principles in Contemporary Christian and Islamic Thought -- Normative Economic…
