I. Community and Society

Christianity is concerned with the relationship of man to God as revealed to us in Jesus. Economic life, roughly, covers that sphere of social existence, in which man's needs are satisfied with the help of material goods. What is the relevance of Christianity to this or, for the matter, to any other sphere of man's social existence?

The answer which we can deduce from the Gospels is peculiar to Christianity. It is also the key to the predominance of ethics in its social philosophy.

IV. Historical categories in economies
