Title
THE CHALLENGE OF WEALTH: Jewish Business Ethics.
Authors
Tamari, Meir
Abstract
Jewish business ethics in Israel addresses two major sources of economic immorality--unbounded desire and fear of economic uncertainty--through enforcement and spiritual education. Business is seen as a path to sanctity, when time is set apart for religious study, wealth is seen as originating from God, the vulnerable are protected against fraud and theft, charity is seen as an obligation, and mercy towards debtors is tempered by justice.
