Anne Bradley - Episode 2: Why are profits and self-interest a good thing?

In the second part of our interview, Dr. Anne Bradley challenges the common interpretation of “self-interest” and explains how it can be a force for good in the world. She also dives into the concept of how legitimately earned business profit helps–not hurts–mankind. 

 

Other topics we cover: What is capitalism and why do you dislike the term? Is there a disconnect between Christian churches and the concept of work? What is the goal of business in a Christian society? Listen to find out more!

 

Dr. Anne Bradley is the Director of Academic Affairs at the Fund for American Studies based in Washington, D.C. She is the co-editor and author of “Counting the Cost: Christian Perspective on Capitalism,” “For the Least of These: a Biblical Answer to Poverty,” and “Be Fruitful and Multiply: Why Economics is Necessary for Making God-Pleasing Decisions.” Bradley earned her Ph.D. in economics from George Mason University and has since taught economic principles and theory at multiple universities.
