Defining and Managing a Denominational Economy.

      Аннотация: Religious denominations are just one manifestation of an association system, perhaps the oldest form of organizations known to humans. Understanding and acting strategically regarding the economies of associational systems like these are complex undertakings. Scholarly literature on the subject is sparse. This specific study triangulates franchising theory, the study of religion and economics, as well as specific literature on denominational economics, to propose a conceptual model for measuring a denomination's economy with the intention for it to influence strategic action.
