- The Biblical Ethic of Free Market Exchange Jeffery Degner Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) Ethics Religion Free Markets Despite the calls of 'Christian Socialists' to bring market forces under state control and its temporal power, the Bible supports free markets. It also prescribes their existence and operation as the standard, God-given means of social interaction. Both the Old and New Testaments provide an ethical defense of the market itself, the division of labor, and the principle of voluntary exchange, condemning force, fraud, and coercion. As the introduction of force into society and exchange is always and ever the policy of interventionists and socialists, this paper aims to oppose those doctrines on the grounds of Biblical ethics. The dismantling of socialism on pragmatic, historic, or epistemological grounds has been thorough and devastating as provided by the Austrian school of economics. This work provides a moral and ethical ground that not only dismisses the socialist agenda, but adds to an already robust body of work that rejects its interventions due to its inefficiencies, failed states, and its pretense of knowledge. 2021 artículo científico 2318-0811 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=586370158012 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5863/586370158012/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5863/586370158012/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5863/586370158012/586370158012.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/5863/586370158012/movil 10.30800/mises.2021.v9.1351 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5863 MISES: Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy, Law and Economics application/pdf Instituto Mises Brasil MISES: Interdisciplinary Journal of Philosophy, Law and Economics (Brasil) Vol.9
