| The 2002 Peace Colloquy theme-Toward Economic Justice?-was chosen with a question mark because the question of economic justice between rich and poor in different parts of the world is in vigorous dispute. This volume will help the reader enter the debate to learn about economics in the twenty-first century, the context in which people work, and the lives they seek to serve. The keynote addresses by Oscar Arias, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate; Douglas Meeks, Vanderbilt Divinity School; Linda Chavez-Thompson, AFL-CIO; and Orval Fisher, Community of Christ World Church minister are published in this volume along with papers by Carol Cease Campbell, Margo Frizzell, Stephen Gates, Rick Hankins, and Ron Roberts. |
