Ethics and the National Economy / Heinrich Pesch

Written toward the end of World War I, this study of economics tackles the issue from the standpoint of religion and philosophy by summarizing the Catholic school of economics, which insists that the welfare of human beings belongs at the center of any real economy and that other systems that place either the individual or the state at the center of their schemes are not only false, but actually injurious to individuals, families, communities, and nations. Extensive documentation and citations from leading economic theorists are provided.

"In this timely re-issue of Heinrich Pesch's answer to hedonistic utilitarianism, morality and materialism are clearly distinguished." -- Frances Hutchinson, The Social Crediter
