THEO 276 - Christianity and Capitalism

3 Credit Hours
This course will explore the relationship between capitalism and religion. We will attempt to provide answers to questions such as: 1) What is capitalism? 2) What role did Christianity and other world religions play in the historical development of the capitalist system? 3) How do markets impact religious decision making? 4) What (if any) was the role of state-sponsored religion in the history of capitalism? 5) What do ethics and theology say about how we should act in markets?

This course will satisfy the core area requirement in theology.
