Theological reflection on economic ethics often follows the tradition of the social sciences in describing economic reality in econometric terms.

In this article, I propose that literature represents an important additional dialogue partner for theological reflection. Four Irish novels are proposed as potential grounds for considering the relevance of the lordless power discussion in an Irish context.
