About Economic Personalism: Power, Property And Justice
Product Description A Book That Could Change Your Thinking About Social and Economic Justice Forever For over 200 years people have been systematically stripped of their dignity as human persons, first by capitalism, then by socialism, as capital ownership became concentrated first in a private élite, then in a State bureaucracy. Forgotten was the demand that the dignity of every child, woman, and man be respected by equal access to the opportunity and means to be productive through ownership of both labor and capital. In Economic Personalism: Power, Property and Justice for Every Person, co-authors Michael D. Greaney and Dawn K. Brohawn explain briefly what happened and why. They then present the principles of how essential institutions can be put back on track to serve the needs of every person. Giving the framework for an economic order that is neither individualist (capitalism) nor collectivist (socialism), but personalist, this book brings into the light of day assumptions about nature, society, and the human person, and about Church, State, and Family that have raised barriers against the full participation of every person in the institutions of the common good. The result of years of intensive research and work in applying the principles of the Just Third Way, Economic Personalism has the potential not only to revitalize how individuals view their institutions and their place in society, but lays out principles that could guide and inspire debate on vital issues of the day and shape public discourse and future policy. Although based on Catholic social teaching based on natural law, the book is written from an interfaith perspective and is readily accessible and applicable by people of all faiths and philosophies. Review "Economic Personalism provides a guide that has the potential, through sound principles, to bring about a new era of justice, freedom, prosperity, and peace for all people throughout the world." - Deacon Joseph B. Gorini, CESJ Counselor, and former Chairman & CEO of Evangelization Enterprises, Inc. "This is a must read for today's practicing Catholics, non-practicing Catholics, and even non-Catholics. It is a succinct evocation of the vision of Pope Saint John Paul II, and gets to the nub of the many problems facing Church, State and Family in these modern times." - Commander (Ret.) Robert Woodman "This book focuses on the sacredness of the individual person as a primary principle expressed through the inalienable human right to personal ownership of productive property. This provides the basis of social justice." - Dr. Robert Crane, Global Strategist and Director, Center for the Study of Islamic Thought and Muslim Societies "A desperately needed treatise that safeguards individual sovereignty over the power of the state. Chronicling a lineage of thought, Economic Personalism provides a high-level road map for future reforms and a basis for action today." - Ian Citti "Economic Personalism is an economic system centered on the dignity, empowerment, and full development of every person. Within 'economic personalism, ' when Black Lives Matter, all lives matter. We are all called to live a testimony-driven life with love, property, power, and justice, for all." - Rev. Dr. Robert Brantley "An excellent introduction to the philosophy and practice of broadened capital ownership Louis Kelso and Mortimer Adler proposed. It reflects the interfaith philosophy and advocacy of the solidarity movement of Central America. It is the only alternative between socialism and capitalism." - Joseph W. Recinos, Director, Advisory Council, Unión Solidarista Guatemalteca "This must-read book gives a new understanding of private property, money and credit. Greaney and Brohawn show it is possible to finance new capital formation by democratizing capital credit. The foundation for this new paradigm is the JUST Third Way of 'Economic Personalism'." - Gary Reber, Editor, Widescreen Review "This book offers a way t
