Economics has replaced theology as the master language of Western culture, and is a particularly powerful influence on Australian culture. This unit considers the complex historical, theological and scientific issues involved in the relationship between economics and theology. It is especially concerned with the interaction between issues for individuals and organisations that the contemporary faith鈥搘ork movement has taken up, and the system issues that economists study. As such, this unit will engage with with the intellectual issues as they occur at the nexus of the various practical problems and dilemmas of Christian discipleship in a culture that is shaped by economics.

Fees: University of Divinity standard course fee, or an audit-only fee of $500
