This work as well as Junius’ scholarly caliber forms also a counterpoint and rebuke to overcome the frequent stereotype that humanism and scholasticism are necessarily antithetical. In Junius, we have one theologian who was trained as a humanist upon legal and classical sources, formally cultivated the study of biblical languages and hermeneutics, contributed to the development of theological systems, thoroughly engaged in pastoral praxis and confessional development, and managed to maintain a modest sobriety about his role as a theologian. Yet, how many opportunities did Junius have to address matters of state and civil polity whether as diplomat, pastor, or theologian? Furthermore, Junius and his work stand as a beacon and call for the interconnectivity, engagement, and distinctness of philosophy, culture, society, civil polity, and theology.","PeriodicalId":22720,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Markets and Morality","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73424850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The widespread availability of general limited liability for corporations across the world since the early 19th century is thought to have contributed to the enormous economic growth over that period. The limited liability company is, however, often blamed for the adverse consequences of this growth, not least in Christian theology, where limited liability is thought by some to be contrary to Biblical principles. This article seeks to demonstrate that the limited liability company is not only consistent with Biblical theology in encouraging prosperity and freedom under limited government, specialisation and interdependence in business relationships, and broader human flourishing but reflects the character of God in reconciling ideas of Law and Grace.","PeriodicalId":22720,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Markets and Morality","volume":"27 1","pages":"35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81591436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amigos—a popular brand name in Switzerland—emphasizes its exotic origin and seeks to impart a feeling of conviviality. However, the drawback to these brand names is that they are far more expensive than their competitors’ products. Swiss retail chain Max Havelaar —the distributor of these “ethical” products—explains that the higher cost sets a positive moral example since the profit margin is diverted back to the poor small planters of South America and Africa. The company alleges that because the surplus profit ends up in the pockets of the workers, the higher prices are just. But in what sense precisely are these prices “just?” Is there an indisputable criterion to differentiate the just from the unjust in pricing goods? If so, what is it?
