The Global-Market Doctrine: A Study in Fundamentalist Theology. The Iconoclast.

McMurty, John

Canadian Social Studies, v31 n2 p70,72 Win 1997

Presents an interesting metaphorical critique of the current enthusiasm for the global market and the free market system. Delineates 10 defining principles of a fundamentalist theological doctrine and then suggests replacing the term "global market" with "Supreme Ruler." Criticizes free market capitalism as being occasionally irrational and contradictory. (MJP)
