An evening for everyone who wants to rethink economics
On Monday, April 13, 2026, Weiden opens its doors for a lecture and reading with a clear social intention. In the Martin-Schalling-Haus, a current book project encounters well-founded theological and ethical perspectives – an event experience that promises discussion, orientation, and new impulses for thought.
What this evening is about
At the center is the book Economizing for Life. Designs for the Transformation of Financial Capitalism. The evening combines lecture format and reading with a content-rich engagement about alternatives to capitalist structures. Themes such as post-growth, common good orientation, sustainability, integrity of nature, and a new monetary system shape the content orientation and provide the audience with a clear perspective on the debate.
A speaker with professional depth
The speaker is Dr. Martin Hoffmann, a Protestant theologian and ethicist. According to the event announcement, he was until 2023 a professor for Systematic Theology and Ethics at the Universidad Bíblica Latinoamericana in Costa Rica. This expertise lends the evening a special authority: here speaks not just a mere impulse giver, but a professional who places ethical questions in a scientific context.
The ambiance in the Martin-Schalling-Haus
The event location at Hans-Sachs-Straße 19 in Weiden creates the appropriate setting for a calm, focused evening. The setting is designed for exchange and contemplation, not for large show effects. This restrained, factual atmosphere is particularly suited to addressing an audience interested in education, society, religion, and current debates.
Why attending is worthwhile
Those who appreciate lectures with substance, literary readings, and a reflective look at future issues will find a strong format here. The event experience thrives on content rather than staging: short paths, clear messages, and a topic that has a lasting impact beyond the evening. For visitors from Weiden and the region, there is the opportunity to follow a socially relevant discourse live.
Conclusion: This evening connects expertise, intellectual breadth, and local culture in a convincing way. Anyone interested in business ethics, transformation, and vibrant conversational culture should not miss the date in Weiden.
