Abstract

This paper examines the attitude of Jewish law to competition in light of the economist's understanding of the benefits of competition and of the beneficiaries from intervention in the competitive process. The punchline of this paper is simple. Although Judaism has used a whole host of restrictions on competition and has had its share of legislation to promote private interests, there has been one area that has generally been a consistent exception to impediments to competition -- the teaching of Torah. This exception is all the more remarkable because those who were in a position to influence the legislation often stood to benefit from such restrictions. From this stress on teaching, we show that the foundation was laid for the survival and perpetuation of Judaism.

Abstract

Many recent social theorists maintain that marriage and the nuclear family are not particularly important to the fabric of our culture. In this powerful refutation, grounded in both christian teaching and social-science data, the author asserts that the bonds of marriage and family are fundamental to our social and spiritual well-being. Unique in the field for its wide and responsible treatment of relevant social issues, More lasting unions explores such topics as adoption as an alternative way of family building, the special needs of children and of aging parents, the perils of consumerism, and balancing family commitments with concern for neighbors.
