by Paul Oslington

Six significant texts

NOW, IF YOU WERE to read only six pieces, I would suggest: Waterman's article, "Economists on the Relation between Political Economy and Christian Theology",171 for an historical survey and relationship between economics and theology; David Richardson's article, "Frontiers in Economics and Christian Scholarship",172 for perspectives on working as a Christian economist; Donald Hay's Economics Today: A Christian Critique,173 for a British evangelical analysis of biblical teaching on economic issues; Nicholas Wolterstorff's article, "The Bible and Economics: the Hermeneutical Issues",174 for interpreting scripture in relation to economics; Donal Dorr on Catholic social teaching;175 and Laurence Iannaccone's "Introduction to the Economics of Religion",176 for an economic analysis of religion.
