Ida Simonsson

Doctor of Theology Ida Simonsson defended her thesis in October 2021. The dissertation is entitled The Order of Value. Christian Theology and the Market Economy. The thesis examines the relationship between Christian theology and market economics by focusing particularly on value theory. It is an analysis of historical lines of development as well as contemporary texts on theology and economics, which leads to an argument that 'value' is a theological-economic complex.
