The Economics of Social Credit and Catholic Social Teaching

In The Economics of Social Credit and Catholic Social Teaching, Dr. Oliver Heydorn argues that it is high time that all Catholics take seriously and examine closely the economic ideas of Major Clifford Hugh Douglas (1879-1952). By surveying the key principles contained within the Church's social doctrine in conjunction with Douglas' Social Credit proposals and their underlying philosophy, the author demonstrates that (in stark contrast to the dead-ends of Austrian economics and the 'Christian socialism' of 'liberation theology' et al. and the half-way houses of classical distributism and economic personalism) it is Social Credit which most fully merits the support of Catholics as the best alternative to the economic status quo.

  • Quelques commentaires critiques concernant : «L’Île des Naufragés» – Autrement connue sous le nom de «L'Île du Salut »
    C’est en effet grâce aux efforts des Pèlerins que j’ai pris conscience pour la première fois du Crédit Social Douglas au début des années 2000 et « The Money Myth Exploded » a été l’un des premiers documents que j’ai lu. Pour leur zèle et leur dévouement, je leur serai éternellement reconnaissant, mais mes études plus approfondies de la doctrine du Crédit Social accomplies dans l'intervalle m'ont maintenant obligé à fournir les mises en garde suivantes. Quels que soient ses mérites, et ils sont nombreux, une lecture trop littérale ou hors contexte de « L’Île des Naufragés » peut conduire le lecteur à des conclusions erronées et sérieusement trompeuses. Il est donc nécessaire de les expliquer de manière assez détaillée afin que de tels écarts puissent être scrupuleusement évités.

It is therefore necessary to explain what these are in some detail so that any such deviations can be scrupulously avoided

  • Joshua Haldeman (Elon Musk's Grandfather) and Douglas Social Credit
    Elon Musk's Canadian Grandfather was a big proponent of Douglas Social Credit as an anti-communist programme for monetary and financial reform. It would surely make getting to Mars a lot easier.
