The Church and the Market
Tom Woods makes the case that Austrian economics is not only compatible with Catholic social teaching — it actually provides the best economic framework for achieving the Church's social goals. He dismantles liberation theology's economics and defends free markets from a uniquely Catholic perspective.
This is one of the most important works in the liberty tradition — essential for any serious student of free markets and individual rights.
