| Résumé : |
Scholars from seven traditions, (African Igbo, Hindu, Buddhist, Confucianist, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim), offer views on globalization.
"Subverting Greed seeks to provide on ethical compass based on multi-religlous Insights that will stimulate dialogue, especially In college classrooms. In these settings, Subverting Greed can act as a counterweight to traditional economic texts that are sometimes blind to the human dimension hidden beneath theories and formulas. At a time when religion, in its fanatical, dangerously closed form has enabled acts of terrible destruction, interfaith partnerships among religious believers working for a better world are more Important than ever. Such a partnership gave birth to this book." — from the Preface by Virginia Straus, Executive Director Boston Research Center for the 21st Century |
