Catholic Social Teaching as Theology
Explores the theological dimension of Catholic social teaching by showing how magisterial documents dealing with social issues are a path to enter into the mystery of the Christian God and to produce “theo-logy”: a reasoned discourse about the divine.

People Get Ready
What does it mean to be a community of difference? St. Mary of the Angels is a tiny underground Catholic parish in the heart of Boston’s Egleston Square. More than a century of local, national, and international migrations has shaped and reshaped the neighborhood, transforming streets into borderlines and the parish into a waystation. Today, the church sustains a community of Black, Caribbean, Latin American, and Euro-American parishioners from Roxbury and beyond. In People Get Ready, Susan Reynolds draws on six years of ethnographic research to examine embodied ritual as a site of radical solidarity in the local church. Weaving together archived letters, oral histories, stories, photograp...
History of Catholic Theological Ethics, A
An introduction to Catholic theological ethics through the lens of its historical development from the beginning of the church until today.
Nos pauvretés
« Heureux, vous les pauvres » (Lc 6, 20). Cette béatitude affirmée par le Christ peut revêtir, pour l’homme contemporain, une contradiction intrinsèque : comment peut-on être pauvre et heureux ? Le vrai bonheur dépendrait-il de notre compte en banque ? A quoi ou à qui associons-nous notre bonheur ? Et en proclamant ainsi cette béatitude, à quelle pauvreté le Christ se réfère-t-il ? Le terme de pauvreté recouvre une multitude de réalités : de la pauvreté subie à la pauvreté choisie, de la pauvreté économique à la pauvreté spirituelle en passant par toute une palette d’autres pauvretés. Il est donc nécessaire de nous arrêter sur le sens même de ce mot. Nous découvrirons ainsi que reconnaître sa pauvreté c’est permettre au Christ de nous rejoindre en notre humanité. Le thème de la Session Sainte-Odile 2019, « Nos pauvretés entre fragilités et richesses », souhaite nous interpeller sur nos pauvretés et nos richesses et nous aider à prendre conscience que, quelles que soient nos richesses, nous souffrons tous de pauvretés et que tous nous quémandons l’aumône d’autrui.
Public Theology and the Global Common Good
This volume explores the contributions to the field of social ethics by David Hollenbach, one of the most prominent voices in the promotion of the common good over the past half-century.Whatever became of the idea of a "common good"? Ethicists and theologians lament the decline in public life of the importance of this concept, so central to the character of civil society and so crucial for the flourishing of individuals within it. In our own culture, the promotion of the common good is a valuable corrective to our atomised morality and laissez-faire economics. This volume, on the 30th anniversary of the famous U.S. Bishops' economics pastoral letter, brings together some of the leading lights in ethics to discuss the role, impact, and importance of public theology across the globe.
