Modelling Churches as Collective Action Groups
Abstract
Contrasting approaches to the economic modelling of churches are examined. The proposal that churches should be modelled as collective action groups, rather than wealth maximising firms is expounded, with particular focus on the way the two approaches treat church products, finances and externalities. The main implications arising from modelling churches as collective action groups are summarised.
