Journal of Markets & Morality

This is a refereed academic journal that is published in the Spring and Fall of each year. As an interdisciplinary medium, the Journal carves a niche that is at the boundaries of economics, philosophy, and theology.

Books

The essays published by the Center are unique treatments of significant topics to the mission of the Acton Institute, which have been overlooked in academic investigations. Some of the volumes are translations of rigorous contributions in medieval philosophy.

Studies in Ethics and Economics Series

After a long period in which economics became detached from theology and ethics, many economists and theologians now see the benefit of studying economic realities in their full cultural, often religious, context. This new series provides an international forum for exploring the difficult theological and economic questions that arise in the pursuit of this objective.

Christian Social Thought Series

Each volume of this series examines one current issue that is at the forefront of our daily lives. The unique contribution of this series is that it presents an economic analysis of each issue. This analysis is framed within the treatment of this issue in Christian social thought in order to shed light on philosophical considerations that must be addressed.

Papers

We present articles that have helped to shape the direction of the academic investigations at the Center. These fall under the following subject headings: Catholic Social Teaching, Religion & Society, Philosophy & Economics, and Economic Personalism.
