Abstract: This article aims to take a brief look at the capitalist spirit as exposed by Max Weber, with his well-known perspective on the protestant ethic, finding commonalities with the current catholic perspective of Pope Francis I on the care for “our common home”, as seen in the 2015 Encyclical “Laudatio Si’”. There will be observed several elements of economic thinking related to a religious paradigm.
