Send Lazarus

Catholicism and the Crises of Neoliberalism

Beschreibung

Contrary to Catholicism's commitment to mercy, today's dominant global economic and cultural system, neoliberal capitalism, demands that life be led as a series of sacrifices to the market. Central is treatment of four neoliberal-perpetuated and -exacerbated crises: environmental destruction, slum proliferation, mass incarceration, and mass deportation.
