Seeking a Just Economy: A Perspective from the Sikh Tradition

This paper engages with the ideas of Anthony Annett in Cathonomics: How Catholic Tradition Can Create A More Just Economy by elucidating Sikh traditions of conceiving and enacting various aspects of economic and social justice, including the promotion of human rights, reducing inequality, allowing for pluralism and environmental protection. It also touches on broader issues embedded in the difference between ‘religious economics’ and the ‘economics of religion’, the role of religious reasons in public discourse, and underlying conditions of power.
