Produktbeschreibung

Finally, a political economist with the lived experience and academic background necessary to explain Pope Francis's disdain for today's rightwing ideologies of populism, nationalism, authoritarianism, and unrestrained capitalism, as expressed in his encyclical Fratelli Tutti. Written for both Catholics and non-Catholics, for those of any faith and no faith, and for academics and non-academics, this is the book you've been waiting for if you want to understand the intersection of politics and religion in the era of global Trumpism and to comprehend the suffering caused by these ideologies in the world today. Recognizing the deep divide on matters of truth and the profound hurt caused by our polarized society, Murray Brux explains how compassionate encounters and truth-telling can bring healing to a broken world and its suffering people. Written in a fully comprehensible manner, this is a book in the tradition of Catholic social justice at its best!
