Initiated by Laszlo Zsolnai, the Von Hügel Institute of St. Edmund’s College, University of Cambridge organized an international workshop on The Economic and Financial Crisis and the Human Person from June 8-9, 2013 in Cambridge, UK.
Participants of the workshop explored the current economic and financial crisis from a spiritual-humanistic point of view. In his lecture Laszlo Zsolnai contrasted ‘Homo Materialis’ with ‘Homo Spiritualis’ and argued that the materialistic conception of man is highly problematic and the spiritual conception of man is more promising in an economic and business context.
