Critique of Church of England Views

Eve Poole

Chapter 4 in The Church on Capitalism, 2010, pp 134-163 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The first chapter examined Church of England views on capitalism through the lens of General Synod. The second chapter expanded the field to include the published views of individual members of the Church of England, both ordained and lay, academic and commercial. Together they represent the canvas of Anglican opinion in England on capitalism in the period. The third chapter examined how theology typically ‘behaves’ through an examination of a variety of theological typographies. The chapter used a meta-analysis of type to generate a taxonomic framework of six criteria to function as a device against which Church of England views on capitalism can be measured. This final chapter will examine the material considered in the preceding chapters in the light of these criteria, looking first at Synod then at the commentators in each case. It will conclude by identifying those areas where additional theological resource would strengthen the Church of England’s ability to engage in the economic debate.
