Description
Good Business: Catholic Social Teaching at Work in the Marketplace Thomas O'Brien, Elizabeth W. Collier, and Patrick Flanagan Doing good business requires a firm moral compass for navigating everyday decisions with significant social, political, and economic impact. Good Business: Catholic Social Teaching at Work in the Marketplace examines eight themes of Catholic Social Teaching-- human dignity, common good, stewardship, option for the poor, economic justice, subsidiarity, solidarity, and rights and responsibilities-- and how they apply to contemporary business practices and critical issues in the global economy. With positive case studies and thoughtful discussion questions, Good Business guides learners toward practical application of the concepts in the modern business world.
