Evidently, religion has played an important role in societies, affecting or even defining individual beliefs and traits, cultural norms and values, social groups and organizations, and political and military power.
The past few decades have ushered in the analysis of the relevance of religion in the history of the world economy. Empirical work examines the causal influence of religion in microeconomics to explain individual behavior and in the macroeconomic determinants of economic growth.
Until recently, religion has not been a popular target for economic analysis. Yet the tools of economics can offer deep insights into how religious groups compete, deliver social services, and reach out to potential converts—how, in daily life, religions nurture and deploy market power.
In this webinar, we explored how growth, inequality, education, technology, public goods provision, and social trends both affect and are affected by religious patterns.
