Saint businesswoman
I often notice that whenever we talk about faith and business, the discussion is mostly about businessmen and their faith. But what about women who seek to live a life of holiness in business? It’s not an exaggeration to say that they receive much less attention. I recently read an article published on the French-language version of the Catholic website Aleteia which provides a e corrective to this tendency. Entitled “Businesswoman et bienheureuse, c’est possible!” and authored by Agnès Pinard...
Alejandro Chafuen in Forbes: Bolsonaro and the new Brazil
Yesterday in Forbes, Alejandro Chafuen, Acton’s Managing Director, International, weighed in on Jair Bolsonaro’s new administration in Brazil. Bolsonaro’s coalition includes people of many different backgrounds and ideas, and collaboration among them will be key for the administration’s success. Brazil may soon e the fastest-growing of the major Western economies. This is not the first time that investors have looked to this South American giant with hopefulness. There is a temptation to think that Brazil is entering into a new...

In honor of George Washington’s birthday, here are 5 things you should know about the day set aside for our America’s premier founding father. 1.

Understanding the aggregate supply curve
Note: This is post #111 in a weekly video series on basic economics. The long-run aggregate supply curve can show us an economy’s potential growth rate when all is going well. bining the long-run aggregate supply curve with the aggregate demand curve can help us understand business fluctuations. For example, while the U.S. economy grows at about 3 percent per year on average, it does tend to fluctuate quite a bit. What causes these fluctuations? As Alex Tabarrok explains in...
Religion drives charitable giving in America
“In study after study,” says Karl Zinsmeister, “religious practice is the behavioral variable with the strongest and most consistent association with generous giving.” In his article for Philanthropy, Zinsmeister examines a range of data to show how America’s religiosity is connected to our charitable giving. Here are a few highlights from her report: • Among Americans who attend services weekly and pray daily, 45 percent had done volunteer work during the previous week. Among all other Americans, only 27 percent...
Who are ‘our poor’ in the immigration debate?
At First Things last week,in his essay “Our Poor,” economist Andrew M. Yuengert reflected upon his 2004 Acton monograph Inhabiting the Land, questioning whether his economic analysis (that immigration is a net gain for both immigrants and natives) needs more nuance in the light of our current political climate: In Inhabiting the Land I concluded that we could only argue against immigration if we were willing to “weigh the wage decrease for native unskilled workers more heavily than the significant...
‘Social justice’ as a postmodern religion
Has “social justice” e a new religion in what many believe to be an irreligious age? Andrew Sullivan recently reflected on the decline of Christianity and the rise of “personal spiritualties” and “political religions,” noting the weaknesses of our modern orthodoxies. “We’re mistaken if we believe that the collapse of Christianity in America has led to a decline in religion,”Sullivan wrote. “It has merely led to religious impulses being expressed by political cults.” On the right, we see the over-elevation...
Valentine’s Day: Rosy economics?
Alright, I’ll confess: I am often accused of being a miser on St. Valentine’s Day. This is because I usually buy three roses for my Italian wife. Never a dozen like everyone else. While devoted to the Trinity, accepting the number 3 as a true sign of God’s perfect unity and love, and while I get a pass from my religious-minded and economically sensitive spouse, my wee rose acquisition is not just a test of love but it is also...
Which is a real dystopia, the U.S. or Venezuela?
As Americans contemplate a “Green New Deal” and British schoolchildren skip school by the thousand to demand (more) government action on climate change, a little-noticed op-ed gives us a glimpse into a genuine dystopia. The author warns that this nightmare scenario will not unfold “The Day After Tomorrow” but has already taken place, for years, in the squalid homes and empty stores of socialist Venezuela. In the West, the stereotype of a Christian crackpot warning “The End is Near” on...
