Product Description For many people capitalism has become a pariah, a bad word, but is that primarily because they have a narrow definition of capitalism? Is there a broader definition that includes righteous capitalism? That is what this book is about.Does theology have any contribution to make towards economics, business and government policies? Do the financial principles, the business models and government legislation of ancient Israel and the teachings of New Testament Christianity play a role today in solving world financial problems? That is also what this book is all about. From the Author Righteous capitalism is higher than moral capitalism. Moral capitalism is not good enough. Morals change. One generation thinks that it is perfectly moral to kidnap people from Africa and place them and their descendants into slavery. Another generation find this to be an abomination. Righteous capitalism sets a higher standard. It relies upon those morals that are absolute and do not fluctuate with the winds of change. How do we apply those absolute standards to dealing with capital?
