Modeling money on God -- Money and theology : a review and a direction -- Money and society : socioeconomic interpretations -- Money as a social relation -- Discerning distortions in monetary relations -- Money and empire -- A trinitarian model of the golbal monetary system -- Payoff for poor countries.
Summary: Making a case for a denationalized global currency as an alternative to the dollar, euro, and yen as the world vehicular and reserve currencies, God and Money explores the significance and theological-ethical implications of money as a social relation in the light of the dynamic relations of the triune God. Wariboko deftly analyzes the dynamics at work in the global monetary system and argues that the monarchical-currency structure of the dollar, euro, and yen may be moving toward a trinitarian structure of a democratic world currency.
