Dear Sr. Prof. Dr. Alessandra Smerilli,
as an economist in the Vatican, you are concerned with questions of a life-sustaining economy and the role of women, so I would like to introduce you as a Catholic "fellow sister" to the work of Walter Eucken.
This "father of the social market economy" in Germany wrote "The Foundations of Economics", a philosophically sound work that is a seed.
From this seed can grow the approach for a global social, ecological, gender-equitable and life-sustaining market economy.
Please contribute to this seed getting humus.
Hence the attached text and my book present.
Ad maiorem dei gloriam
