The Spirit of Conscious Capitalism cover

This book provides a constructive criticism of the emerging practice of conscious capitalism from the perspective of world religions and spiritualities. Conscious capitalism, to many of its adherents, represents an evolutionary step forward beyond the dominant neo-liberal paradigm, where it often appears that just about everything is for sale. Is conscious capitalism consistent with the values inherent in religious and spiritual world-views and does it provide a better fit for bringing out the best that business has to offer? This book answers these questions and many more. An appealing read for researchers in business ethics as well as any reader critical of the excrescences of capitalism.

“The book entitled The Spirit of Conscious Capitalism is an important contribution to the rapprochement between business and spirituality, providing representatives of various spiritual traditions an opportunity to respond to the demands for spirituality from business leaders. … This volume has several merits. … It is a timely volume for not only scholars in economics, theology, and religious studies but also for society at large.” (Lans Bovenberg, JETR, Journal of Economics, Theology and Religion, Vol. 2 (2), 2022)
