This multi-author book is a response to the exhortations from Pope Francis to consider the Covid-19 pandemic as a sign of crisis in the current economic system, marked by unacceptable social inequalities and severe damage to ecosystems, yet also representing an opportunity to better understand the interconnected-ness of these systems and to envision new paradigms for their radical transformation.

We also seek to envision new paradigms that support and enflesh the so-called “Economy of Francis,” which posits a holistic vision of relations between people, and between humans and creation.
