TL;DR: The influence of the Jansenism on economic ideas can be roughly divided into three issues: (i) the original vision of labor that contrasts with the Protestant's approach and the Catholic doctrine, (ii) the idea that self-interest can produce a social optimum, and (iii) the confrontation between two parties-the "liberal" vs the "resistant" jansenism currents on the interest-bearing loans issue led to the development of new economic arguments for or against the credit, while making reference to the Holy Writings as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: This article reassesses the links between the origins of the political economy and the Christian theology during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. I focus on the Jansenism movement-the most powerful Christian protest current in the pre-Revolution period. I reveal that the influence of this movement on economic ideas can be roughly divided into three issues. During the pre-Unigenitus (1713) period (first jansenism), (i) the original vision of labor that contrasts with the Protestant's approach and the Catholic doctrine, and (ii) the idea that self-interest can produce a social optimum were major contributions of the jansenism on economic debates. During the post-Unigenitus period (second jansenism), (iii) the confrontation between two parties-the "liberal" vs the "resistant" jansenism currents-on the interest-bearing loans issue led to the development of new economic arguments for or against the credit, while making reference to the Holy Writings.

TL;DR: The authors studied eleven conflicts between Dutch Catholic nobles and the leaders of the Holland mission, revealing the complex and dynamic interplay between clergy and laity, and showed how slowly but surely this community disintegrated into warring factions of clergymen and laypeople.
Abstract: This article studies eleven conflicts between Catholic nobles and the leaders of the Holland Mission. The nobles claimed the right to nominate and present priests in the clandestine Catholic churches and chapels in their jurisdictions; the apostolic vicars and internuncios refused to grant such privileges to members of the laity. Through the assertion of patronage rights, the Dutch Catholic nobility tried to expand their influence over the Holland Mission and voiced their preference for particular priests. As such, these conflicts offer a window into the inner workings of the Missio Hollandica and the Dutch Catholic community, revealing the complex and dynamic interplay between clergy and laity. Moreover, a number of these quarrels represent early instances of laypeople taking a stance in the battle between Jansenists and their opponents, a larger conflict which eventually lead to a schism in the Catholic Church in the Dutch Republic. This analysis therefore provides a cross-section of the Dutch Catholic community and shows how slowly but surely this community disintegrated into warring factions of clergymen and laypeople.
