Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leo XIII and Modern Civilization Pius IX. Never attempted to supply this omission his Syllabus of Errors was published long before the Vatican Decrees, and besides, being merely in a negative form, it was not promulgated by him as a whole in the form of an encyclical. He was appar ently content to supply the material - like another David, leaving the construction of the temple to his successor, the Solomon of the Church. The noise less manner in which the latter has carried on his part of the work has concealed it from public atten tion - many would even deny that it had been begun.

THE CHURCH AND THE STATE. According to recent statements of the press, large numbers of our citizens are enrolling themselves in an organization, the object of which is to exclude Roman Catholics from public offices. The fact that the Roman Catholic press is teeming with denunciations of the order, makes it very probable that the movement is a large and growing one. A recent article in the most conservative of Roman Catholic magazines urged its readers to leave one and join the other of the two great political parties, and Cardinal Gibbons, in an open letter (published in the Catholic Review for May 23, 1896), has threatened that all Roman Catholics will take this course, unless opposition to them, as such, ceases. This suggestion has already been followed by the institution of the Order of Catholic Americans, with the object of questioning all candidates as to their opinions concerning the right of Roman Catholics to hold public office.' According to the published statement of the leader of one of the great political parties in this State, the recent murder at the election in Troy was due to a feud which grew out of this antagonism. In many cities the municipal elections were conducted avowedly on these lines, especially where the choice of officials having charge of public education, was 8 involved; in some States, the nominations for State officers are made with reference to this issue, and a presidential candidate has been denounced on account of his alleged friendliness to Roman Catholics in politics. Has this Anti Roman Catholic movement any justification? Is it destined to spread and grow? Or, is it merely a revival of the old Know-nothing spirit, which will shortly disappear on account of its own folly? According...

Book On the Economic Significance of the Catholic Social Doctrine

Download or read book On the Economic Significance of the Catholic Social Doctrine written by JÜRGEN BACKHAUS and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the history and socioeconomic impact of Rerum novarum, the first Catholic social encyclical. Drawn from research presented at the 2016 Heilbronn Symposia on Economics and the Social Sciences, this book resumes the discussion on the origin, dissemination and impact of the Catholic social doctrine which originated in this epoch-making encyclical, arguing that the fundamental concepts of this doctrine have had long-standing influence on the development of the modern social state and social market economy. Beginning with an introductory background on the Rerum novarum, the book moves through chapters focused on the implementation and application of the doctrine throughout its history and the impact it has had on global economics. The book starts with the contributions of precursors and pioneers of the doctrine such as Bishop Wilhelm von Ketteler , proceeds to the reception of Rerum novarum after its implementation, and presents examples of its application. It then moves to the central question of Rerum novarum on the role of land, the taxation of immovable property, and more generally, justice. The book concludes with comments on the wider significance of Rerum novarum and Catholic social doctrine from a sociological and theological perspective. This book will be useful for academic researchers interested in theoretical economic history, political science and history, economic thought, as well as contemporary global and social issues from the perspective of the Christian faith.

Book Modern Catholic Social Teaching

Download or read book Modern Catholic Social Teaching written by Joe Holland and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of the industrial revolution on the social structures of industrialized nations posed a difficult challenge to the Catholic Church and its Popes. In the struggle for human and economic status, should the Church side with the new working class or with capitalist barons who, along with the old aristocracy, identified themselves as upholders of Christian civilization? In this history of papal social teaching, Joe Holland tells how the popes at first backed the status quo. Then, with the accession of Pope Leo XIII in 1878, a seismic shift took place. Leo's encyclical Rerum novarum was the first authoritative Church voice to declare that laboring people have rights--the right to fair wages, to decent living conditions, the right to organize labor unions and even to strike. Henceforth the notion of civilization, at least for the Church, would be grounded in the lives and aspirations of working people. Modern Catholic Social Teaching traces this historic shift as it played out in the writings of Leo and the popes who followed him: Pius X, Benedict XV, Pius XI, and Pius XII. These popes supported Leo's encyclical and even elaborated it as European history experienced the emergen

Book Social Justice and Subsidiarity

Download or read book Social Justice and Subsidiarity written by Thomas C. Behr and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2020-01-10 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luigi Taparelli, SJ, 1793-1862, in his Theoretical Treatise of Natural Right Based on Fact, 1840-43, presents a neo-Thomistic approach to social, economic, and political sciences grounded in an integral conception of the human person as social animal but also as rational truth seeker. His conceptions of social justice and of subsidiarity are fundamental to modern Catholic social teaching (CST). His work moves away from traditionalist-conservative reaction in favor of an authentically human, moderately liberal, modernity built on the harmony of faith and reason. He zealously deconstructs laissez-faire liberal ideology and its socialist progeny in scores of articles in the Civiltà Cattolica, the journal that he co-founded in 1850. His arguments figure prominently in the Syllabus of Errors (1864) of Pius IX. Though a moderate liberal himself, his reputation as anti-liberal reactionary and defender of Papal temporal sovereignty is the chief reason why Pope Leo XIII later sought to quiet Taparelli’s contribution to the foundations and pillars of modern CST that began with the restoration of Thomistic philosophy in Aeterni Patris (1879), and the “magna carta” of modern Catholic social teaching, Rerum Novarum (1891). Pius XI relies heavily on Taparelli’s concept of subsidiarity in Quadragesimo Anno (1931), and sought to advance interest in Taparelli studies. However, Taparelli’s eclectic philosophical orientation and writing style have been a considerable stumbling block. In this present book, Taparelli’s ideas are evaluated both for their philosophical character but also in their historical context. Taparelli’s theories of the just society and ordered liberty, are as timely nowadays for reasoned political and ethical discourse as ever. The book includes an appendix of translated portions of the Theoretical Treatise of Natural Right Based on Fact that relate to subsidiarity.

Book The Irony of Modern Catholic History

Download or read book The Irony of Modern Catholic History written by George Weigel and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful new interpretation of Catholicism's dramatic encounter with modernity, by one of America's leading intellectuals Throughout much of the nineteenth century, both secular and Catholic leaders assumed that the Church and the modern world were locked in a battle to the death. The triumph of modernity would not only finish the Church as a consequential player in world history; it would also lead to the death of religious conviction. But today, the Catholic Church is far more vital and consequential than it was 150 years ago. Ironically, in confronting modernity, the Catholic Church rediscovered its evangelical essence. In the process, Catholicism developed intellectual tools capable of rescuing the imperiled modern project. A richly rendered, deeply learned, and powerfully argued account of two centuries of profound change in the church and the world, The Irony of Modern Catholic History reveals how Catholicism offers twenty-first century essential truths for our survival and flourishing.
