Description

Economics of Faith explores how religious leaders shaped the development of poor relief institutions during early modern Europe. This scholarly work from Oxford University Press examines the shifting views on salvation and good works that drove social welfare reform. As preachers, policy makers, and community advocates, these religious reformers changed the way society viewed the poor. While poverty was once seen as a sign of spiritual piety, these leaders moved toward a new interpretation where social welfare reform became a central part of religious reform. By modifying existing institutions, they created a new religious foundation for how communities addressed economic hardship. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history of Europe, religious history, and the evolution of social welfare systems. It provides a detailed look at how theological shifts directly influenced the practical organization of community support and poverty management in the Renaissance era.
