Theos Report on Economic Inequality


A new report from Theos has been published, this one on economic inequality.


Hannah Rich, Beyond Left and Right: Finding Consensus on Economic Inequality (London: Theos, 2021).


Here are some paragraphs from the Theos website:


‘Economic inequality is one of the defining issues of our time, both within countries and across the globe, and has gained political salience and public attention in recent years. However, measures to address it are often made difficult by the divisive and partisan nature of the problem, which hinders any consensus on how we ought to go about reducing inequality.


‘In this report, we contend that theology offers a different way of exploring excessive economic inequality, and can open up new avenues of consensus between political and social positions that have typically been at odds.’


A pdf of the full report is available here, and a launch blog post here.
