Still today, the principles of general economic theories do not take in any way into consideration the impact of religious affiliations on economic market systems and on rational consumption patterns.
However, one must not forget that every economic model is also a product of the human kind and for this reason it constitutes a complex but strongly connected set of relationships of different nature. From this perspective religion represents a matrix of meanings or an instrument through which the economical drives and choices from individuals can be explained. In this way the religious space goes beyond the distinction between transcendence and immateriality, and shows its real soul in the universe of markets.
