Summary:

Contending that empire is alive and well in the world's monetary systems, God and Money explores the theological-ethical implications of money as a social relation with others and to God. Wariboko argues that financial globalization requires a denationalized single global currency to institute a new structure of rule in our emerging global civilization and its common good.
