Rev. Robert Sirico will be giving an address on the Belmont University campus this next week. The title of his lecture is “A Moral Analysis of the Economic Crisis”. Father Sirico will examine some of the key cultural factors
essential to a robust economy, including rule of law, trust, and a
worldview that encourages rather than undermines these things.
Father Sirico is president of the Acton Institute, whose purpose is “integrating Judeo-Christian truths with free market principles.”
Fr. Sirico lectures at colleges,
universities,
and business organizations throughout the U.S. and abroad. His
writings on religious,
political, economic, and social matters are published in a variety of
journals,
including: the New York Time, the Wall Street Journal, the London
Financial
Times, the Washington Times, and the National Review. Fr. Sirico is often called upon by members of the
broadcast
media for statements regarding economics, civil rights, and issues of
religious
concern, and has provided commentary for CNN, ABC, BBC, NPR and CBS’ 60 minutes, among others.
This is Fr. Sirico’s second visit to Belmont University.
