From fascism at the dawn of the century, through liberalism and the associated phenomenon of unfettered statism, to the current disillusionment of postmodernism and relativism with endeavours towards new mercantilism. All have maintained poverty, inequality and created scepticism amongst both lay persons and academics. Above all else a renewed yearning for moral and ethical direction in political and economic conduct has been created. This book provides a Christian ethical reflection on political-economic conduct in South Africa as an alternative to current modernistic ideas. This book aims to produce new Christian ethical insight into the value of new liberal perspectives on the enhancement of the South African political economy. New Christian ethical insight will be gained through new perspectives on the South African political economy. 410 0$aReformed theology in Africa series ;$vVolume 3. 517 $aChristian ethics and political economy 606 $aChristian ethics$zSouth Africa 606 $aEconomic policy$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aChristian ethics 615 0$aEconomic policy$xMoral and ethical aspects. 676 $a241 702 $aBøsterud$b Morten 702 $aVenter$b Jan C.
