| Publisher Description: Why are economic inequalities greatest in the southern countries where most people are Christians? This book teases out the web of influences that have created this situation, and concludes that Christians could help reduce economic inequalities by opposing corruption. Interviews with key informants in the Philippines, Kenya, Zambia, and Peru reveal the opportunities and challenges for Christians as they face up to corruption. |
