Francis’ Economic Thought: His Case for an Inclusive Economy

Luca Sandonà

Forum for Social Economics, 2020, vol. 49, issue 4, 430-445

Abstract: This paper examines Francis’ economic thought that is at the centre of international public debate. Francis elaborates four pillars: critique of money idolatry; rejection of the trickle-down theory; support of inclusive institutions; introduction of a green economy. My analysis points out Francis wakes up the interest for social economics because he originally communicates the philosophy behind it. In fact, Francis pointed out the necessity of a change of economics in the perspective of social values.
