This article deals with the analysis of selected parts of Thomas Aquinas’s Summa theologiae that contain certain parts of his economic thinking and with the subsequent comparison of his economic thought with related fields of contemporary economic theory and economic life that is determined by inland legislation. The overlaps of Aquinas’s economic thinking into the present times were found by the research process, among others in the area of price, consumer protection, restitution and profit. The absence of ethics in contemporary (positive) economics then contrasts sharply with the economic thinking of Thomas Aquinas.
