From Monasteries to the Twin Towers: The Crumbling Spirituality of Capitalism [download]

Most people assume that business and management are secular activities, but on the basis of his firsthand experience, Dr. Mangalwadi explains how religion prevented his native India from developing industrial capitalism and professional management. His grassroots-level involvement with the poor led him to look for the spirituality of economic development, which in turn made him explore the religiosity that enabled medieval European monasteries to become complex industrial and commercial houses requiring professional managers. Dr. Mangalwadi goes on to explain how the 16th-century biblical Reformation brought the economic outlook of these monasteries into the mainstream of Western civilization. He also discusses why the loss of biblical spirituality is now fueling global hatred for the American economy: the hatred that was expressed in the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, on September 11, 2001.
