Description

Economics of Faith examines how religious leaders shaped poor relief institutions across early modern Europe by reinterpreting salvation and charitable works. This Oxford Studies in Historical Theology volume explores the crucial intersection of theology and social welfare, revealing how reformers transformed attitudes toward poverty from spiritual virtue to a matter requiring institutional reform. Published by Oxford University Press, this scholarly work analyses preachers, policy makers, and community leaders who integrated religious reform with systematic poor relief initiatives. The book provides essential historical context for understanding how religious thought directly influenced the development of welfare systems that would define early modern European society. Essential reading for historians of Christianity, social welfare, and Renaissance Europe.
