Send Lazarus: Catholicism and the Crises of Neoliberalism

by Peter Joseph Fritz and Matthew T. Eggemeier

Book Overview

Contrary to Catholicism's commitment to mercy, today's dominant global economic and cultural system, neoliberal capitalism, demands that life be led as a series of sacrifices to the market. Central is treatment of four neoliberal-perpetuated and -exacerbated crises: environmental destruction, slum proliferation, mass incarceration, and mass deportation.
