The Age of Plenty: A Christian View
Author(s)Schumacher, E. F.
AbstractThis article evaluates the future of industrial society from a Christian perspective. The Christian perspective flows from “The Fountainhead” of the St. Ignatius of Loyola which suggests that man should use the goods of the earth only so far as they help him attain a higher goal, and should withdraw when the material hinders the attainment of a higher goal.
