Center Leads Economic Justice Project
Center president James W. Skillen is directing a grant-funded educational/advocacy project entitled Justice for a Free Market. Conducted in cooperation with a team of Christian economists, professors, and labor experts, the project will outline and illustrate a series of principles for just economics aimed at those engaged in business, education, and political life.
Results of the project will include a small book, a statement on economic justice for the Center's Guidelines series, and an essay for use by the Christian Community Development Association.
A group of consulting advisers, drawn from business and the academy, will participate in discussions and critique draft documents over the coming nine to 12 months. This group includes:
Dr. Amy Sherman, Sagamore Institute for Policy Research
Dr. Brian Fikkert, Covenant College
Dr. Bruce Webb, Gordon College
Dr. Gideon Strauss, Work Research Foundation
Mr. Rudy Carrasco, Harambee Christian Family Center
Dr. Elwil Beukes, The King’s College
Mr. John Truschel, The Boston Company
