SUMMARY:Love of Neighbor and the Dismal Science: Economics for Christians
DESCRIPTION:Chesterton Perspectives brings you: \nLove of Neighbor and the Dismal Science: Economics for Christians\nA Conversation with Chris Barrett Stephen B. and Janice G. Ashley Professor of Applied Economics and Management and International Professor of Agriculture\, Cornell University \nMarch 6th\, 2023\n7:30pm ET in person at 111 The Knoll Rd\n7:45pm ET via Zoom\n\nRegister Here \nChris Barrett will be joining a live gathered audience at The Knoll. \n\nJesus’ commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves (MT 22:39) invites action. We then inevitably confront the difficult foundational questions of economics: Scarce resources necessitate tradeoffs\, so what is the best use of limited time\, talent and treasure? Since individual actions respond to structural incentives and constraints and may be dwarfed by broader (market or other) forces\, how should we act and assess others’ actions? Given human sinfulness\, what policies can induce behaviors that reduce material suffering of the poor? Join us in conversation with Chris Barrett\, Prof. of Applied Economics and Management\, of Agriculture\, and of Public Policy as we learn about development\, agricultural and resource economics\, poverty traps\, food insecurity\, how economic models can inform and mislead\, and more. \n\nChris Barrett Ph.D\, Professor of Applied Economics and Management and International Professor of Agriculture\, Cornell University\nChris Barrett is Stephen B. and Janice G. Ashley Professor of Applied Economics and Management\, and an international professor of agriculture at the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management\, as well as a professor in Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy and a Senior Faculty Fellow of the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability\, all at Cornell University. He is co-editor-in-chief of the journal Food Policy\, edits the Palgrave Macmillan book series Agricultural Economics and Food Policy\, and co-edits the Elsevier Handbook of Agricultural Economics\, volumes 5 and 6. He has won several university\, national\, and international awards for teaching\, research and public outreach\, and is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences and fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association\, and the African Association of Agricultural Economists. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Can Capitalism Be Christian? Economics and Social Hierarchies
DESCRIPTION:Chesterton Perspectives brings you: \nCan Capitalism Be Christian? Economics and Social Hierarchies\nA Conversation with Jonathan Tran Associate Professor of Philosophical Theology and George W. Baines Chair of Religion \nMarch 27\, 2023\n7:30pm ET in person at 111 The Knoll Rd\n7:45pm ET via Zoom\n\nRegister Here \nWhat if it turned out that even well-intended attempts to remedy social and economic injustice actually made things worse? Jonathan Tran\, a theological ethicist at Baylor University\, has argued just this. On his telling\, an overly narrow focus on racial biases\, bigotry\, and interpersonal microaggressions (what in modern parlance goes by “antiracism”) unwittingly entrenches the very economic structures that allow racial oppression to persist.\n\nBut what if instead the goal that antiracism seeks in vain is better found in a revolutionary Christian ethic? What Christians most need today\, Tran argues\, is a kind of economic revolutionary spirit\, one that goes beyond mere Marxism\, which lacks the framework required for moral judgment and just action. On his view\, Christianity can supply just this sort of economic revolutionary spirit\, one that would be better suited to address oppressive social structures of what he terms “racial capitalism” by pushing for a Biblical vision of a just social order. Join us in conversation with Jonathan about theology\, social hierarchy\, and economic justice.\n\n\nJonathan Tran Associate Professor of Philosophical Theology and George W. Baines\nOriginally from Southern California\, Jonathan received his BA from University of California\, Riverside and his M.Div. and Ph.D. from Duke Divinity School where he studied under Stanley Hauerwas. He joined Baylor University’s Religion Department after completing his graduate studies in theology and ethics at Duke University. Currently\, he serves as Associate Dean of Baylor’s Honors College and Associate Professor of Theology within the Great Texts program. Jonathan teaches undergraduate and graduate courses while serving students\, staff\, and faculty in the Honors College\, and his research examines the theological and political implications of human life in language. \n\n\nRegister Here
