Popis: Religious ethics and economic systems have historically been intertwined. Therefore, the references to sustainable development, the environment and ecology in contemporary religious productions are no exceptionality. The article proposes, in the first place, to reconstruct the theoretical debate regarding the role religion plays within a social system. We will review the main sociological currents that have explored these topics in depth, and then delve into an analysis of religious documents —mainly from Catholicism— that reflect on the process of globalization, development, the environment and ecology. Finally, we will consider the case of Catholicism in Argentina and the ways in which its institutional framework operates on the economy and society in order to socialize “other” models of sustainable development.
