Tawney investigates the way religion has moulded social and economic practice. He tracks the influence of religious thought on capitalist economy and ideology since the Middle Ages, shedding light on the question of why Christianity continues to exert a unique role in the marketplace. The book offers an incisive analysis of the morals and mores of contemporary Western culture.In tough, muscular, richly varied prose, Tawney tells an absorbing and meaningful story. Today, the dividing line between the spheres of religion and the secular is shifting, and Religion and the Rise of Capitalism is more pertinent than ever.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Business & FinanceBook Series: Verso World HistoryTopic: Society & Culture, Social SciencesRelease Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
