Abstract
This paper argues that: a) economic systems are an expression of their own cultures and histories and they cannot therefore be exported to places where the local culture does not support their implementation; b) the indiscriminate application of the German (Lutheran) model to all European countries (mainly to Mediterranean Catholic countries) has fostered economic growth in the EU at different speeds; c) Italy, the cradle of Catholic capitalism, is currently attempting to react against austerity measures –imposed by the economic constrictions of the German model– by focusing on the third sector and non-profit companies, which are an expression of Catholic capitalism originating in the Franciscan Third Order.
Resumen (otros idiomas)
Este artículo sostiene que: a) los sistemas económicos son una expresión de sus propias culturas e historias y, por lo tanto, no pueden exportarse a lugares donde la cultura local no apoya su implementación; b) la aplicación indiscriminada del modelo alemán (luterano) a todos los países europeos (principalmente a los países católicos mediterráneos) ha fomentado el crecimiento económico en la UE a diferentes velocidades; c) Italia, cuna del capitalismo católico, intenta actualmente reaccionar contra las medidas de austeridad, impuestas por las restricciones económicas del modelo alemán, centrándose en el tercer sector y en las empresas sin ánimo de lucro, que son expresión del capitalismo católico originado en la Tercera Orden Franciscana.
