Charley Clark is a professor of economics from St. John's University. We sat down to discuss what CST can bring to economics and poverty research. Charley shares how humans thrive in communion with others and that this isn't just linked to individual fulfillment but that it's also the key to a prosperous economy. He shares that he's optimistic about efforts towards eradicating poverty and that the Catholic Church has been a leader by demanding that the poor in developing countries have a seat at the table.
