How has institutionalization of religion influenced the prosperity of countries in Europe and the Americas? This open access book addresses these critical questions by elucidating the hegemonic and emancipatory religious factors leading to these dissimilarities between countries. The book features up-to-date mixed methods from interdisciplinary research contributing to existing studies in the sociology of religion field by demonstrating?for the first time?the effect of the mutually reinforcing configuration of multiple prosperity triggers (religion?politics?environment). It demonstrates the differences in the institutionalization of Roman Catholicism and Protestantism by applying quantitative and qualitative methods and by performing a qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) of 65 countries. The author also provides a comprehensive survey and results of empirical research on different theories of development, focusing on the influence of religion. 410 0$aContributions to Economics 517 $aYe Shall Know Them by Their Fruits 606 $aPublic finance$2bicssc 606 $aChristianity$2bicssc 606 $aPolitical structure & processes$2bicssc 606 $aEconomics of industrial organisation$2bicssc 610 $aOpen access 610 $aReligion and prosperity 610 $aRoman catholicism 610 $aEconomics of religion 610 $aProtestant reformation 610 $aChurch-State relation 610 $aReligious economic policies 610 $aCompetitiveness 615 7$aPublic finance 615 7$aChristianity 615 7$aPolitical structure & processes 615 7$aEconomics of industrial organisation 700 $aGarcía Portilla$b Jason$01076083 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910513704903321 996 $aYe Shall Know Them by Their Fruits$92586187 997 $aUNINA
