The Acton Institute is committed to the free exchange of goods and services
between persons, and acknowledges the essential relationship between a
free, open economy and a free and prosperous people. We affirm that isolating
countries from the global economy creates perverse incentives for the
regimes that govern them, and harms the material well-being of their citizens.
We support efforts to remove barriers to trade between nations and to
bring all persons into the circle of exchange.

of Catholic social teaching to the vicissitudes of the social order.
In particular, this paper highlights the application of significant
principles of Catholic social thought to globalization, taking into
account many of the major statements released by the Church. |
