Abstract

The economic system in South Africa is clearly in need of thorough reconstruction. Economists differ in their policies for such a process of economic reconstruction (usually emphasizing either private enterprise of public enterprise). This essay discusses a possible contribution from Christian ethics to these economic debates, with specific reference to the notions of stewardship and justice.
