330 .. $a "Oslington tells the story of natural theology shaping political economy in the late
18th and early 19th centuries, emphasising continuing significance of theological
issues for the discipline of economics. Early political economists such as Adam Smith,
Josiah Tucker, Edmund Burke, William Paley, TR Malthus, Richard Whately, JB Sumner,
Thomas Chalmers and William Whewell, extended the British scientific natural theology
tradition of Francis Bacon, Robert Boyle and Isaac Newton to the social world. This
extension nourished and shaped political economy as a discipline, influencing its
theoretical framework, but perhaps more importantly helping legitimate political economy
in the British universities and public policy circles. Educating the public in the
principles of political economy had a central place in this religiously driven program.
Natural theology also created tensions (especially reconciling economic suffering
with divine goodness and power) that eventually contributed to its demise and the
separation of economics from theology in mid-19th-century Britain. This volume highlights
aspects of the story that are neglected in standard histories of economics, histories
of science and contemporary theology."
