Joseph Thomas Delos
L'œuvre confidentielle de Joseph Thomas Delos répond à l'ambition de proposer une pensée alternative chrétienne à la société libérale. Professeur de droit international public, thomiste, ce dominicain n'a eu de cesse de vouloir articuler les résultats de la sociologie à une réflexion juridique sur le bien commun. Cet axe principal de sa recherche repose sur une analyse de la société internationale et des conditions de construction d'un ordre juridique international. Ce dernier se caractérise par l'instauration d'institutions internationales indépendantes et l'intégration des Etats-nations de ce nouvel ordre institutionnel, selon le principe juridique du dédoublement fonctio...
The Concept of Ius and the Nature of Law in Thomas Aquinas
This collection of essays constitutes the fruit of a scholarly conference held in Rome in April 2023, which was organized by the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross, and the Angelicum Thomistic Institute. The essays offer a scholarly reflection on various historical and doctrinal aspects of Aquinas's concept of ius, and on the extent to which this concept helps to illuminate his account of the nature of law, that is, of the juridical phenomenon. Each essay addresses, from the viewpoint of its specific topic, the implications of the Angelic Doctor's description of ius as the object of justice, as presented in the Secunda secundae of his S...
Catholic Social Teaching
Few treatments of Catholic Social Teaching are as comprehensive as this, and none is nearly so devoted to a critical scholarly presentation and analysis of the whole corpus.
The Philosophy of Law
From articles centering on the detailed and doctrinal exposition of the law to those which reside almost wholly within the realm of philosophical ethics, this volume affords comprehensive treatment to both sides of the philosophico-legal equation. Systematic and sustained coverage of the many dimensions of legal thought gives ample expression to the true breadth and depth of the philosophy of law, with coverage of: The modes of knowing and the kinds of normativity used in the law; Studies in international, constitutional, criminal, administrative, persons and property, contracts and tort law-including their historical origins and worldwide ramifications; Current legal cultures such as common law and civilian, European, and Aboriginal; Influential jurisprudents and their biographies; All influential schools and methods
The Individual in International Law
Shifts across the corpus of international law have brought the international legal system into a closer alignment with the interests of the individual. This has led to a great and growing interest in the roles and status of individuals in international law, and provided new impulses for debate. The Individual in International Law is an exploration of what is described as the humanisation of international law. It examines how international law has accommodated individuals, and how individual status, rights, and obligations have become denser and more important in the international legal system. Split into two parts, the book analyses the humanisation of international law in different historic...
Universalism and Liberation
The changing attitude of Catholic culture towards modernity After decades of a problematic, if not plainly hostile, approach to modernity by Catholic culture, the 1960s marked the beginning of a new era. As the Church employed a more positive approach to the world, voices in the Catholic milieu embraced a radical perspective, channeling the need for social justice for the poor and the oppressed. The alternative and complementary world views of ‘universalism’ and ‘liberation’ would drive the engagement of Catholics for generations to come, shaping the idea of international community in Catholic culture. Because of its traditional connection with the papacy and because of its prominent role in the map of European progressive Catholicism, Italy stands out as an ideal case study to follow these dynamics. By locating the Italian scenario in a broader geographical frame, Universalism and Liberation offers a new vantage point from which to investigate the social and political relevance of religion in an age of crisis.
