Cathonomics Book Review

Cathonomics by Anthony Annett explores how Catholic Social Teaching (CST) can inform the creation of a more just and inclusive economy. It critiques modern economics, particularly its focus on efficiency and financial value, and advocates for an economy rooted in ethics, justice, and care for the poor. Drawing on CST principles, the book offers practical solutions to address inequality, promote human development, and foster solidarity, presenting a vision of a “virtue economy” that prioritizes the common good over individualistic competition.
