Catholic Discordance
2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention Pope Francis 2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention in English translation edition One element of the church that Pope Francis was elected to lead in 2013 was an ideology that might be called the “American” model of Catholicism—the troubling result of efforts by intellectuals like Michael Novak, George Weigel, and Richard John Neuhaus to remake Catholicism into both a culture war colossus and a prop for ascendant capitalism. After laying the groundwork during the 1980s and armed with a selective and manipulative reading of Pope John Paul II’s 1991 encyclical Centesimus Annus, these neoconservative commentators established t...
Catholic Discordance
One element of the church that Pope Francis was elected to lead in 2013 was an ideology that might be called the “American” model of Catholicism—the troubling result of efforts by intellectuals like Michael Novak, George Weigel, and Richard John Neuhaus to remake Catholicism into both a culture war colossus and a prop for ascendant capitalism. After laying the groundwork during the 1980s and armed with a selective and manipulative reading of Pope John Paul II’s 1991 encyclical Centesimus Annus, these neoconservative commentators established themselves as authoritative Catholic voices throughout the 1990s, viewing every question through a liberal-conservative ecclesial-political lens....
The Mind of Pope Francis
A commonly held impression is that Pope Francis is a compassionate shepherd and determined leader but that he lacks the intellectual depth of his recent predecessors. Massimo Borghesi’s The Mind of Pope Francis: Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s Intellectual Journey dismantles that image. Borghesi recounts and analyzes, for the first time, Bergoglio’s intellectual formation, exploring the philosophical, theological, and spiritual principles that support the profound vision at the heart of this pope’s teaching and ministry. Central to that vision is the church as a coincidentia oppositorum, holding together what might seem to be opposing and irreconcilable realities. Among his guiding lights ha...
Augusto Del Noce
Este libro pretende recorrer, de forma orgánica, la evolución del pensamiento filosófico y político de Augusto Del Noce (1910-1989), uno de los pensadores italianos más destacados de la posguerra. Un camino ideal dominado, en los años 1940-1950, por una intención fundamental: la de liberar a los católicos, salidos de la dictadura y de la guerra, de la nostalgia reaccionaria y abrirlos a una relación positiva con las libertades modernas. Esta tarea toma como modelo, en el plano histórico, la figura y la obra de Alcide De Gasperi. Del Noce entiende su pensamiento como la respuesta al desafío que el binomio cristianismo-democracia plantea a los católicos. El resultado fue el «descubrimiento» de una doble modernidad: la racionalista y totalitaria, que culminó en Marx y Nietzsche; y la católica y liberal, que culminó en Rosmini. El libro recorre la evolución del pensamiento del autor desde 1943 hasta 1978, en un profundo entrelazamiento de especulación e historia que lo convierte en un caso único en la reflexión filosófica contemporánea.
Discovering Pope Francis
2020 Association of Catholic Publishers third place award in theology 2020 Catholic Press Association third place award in Pope Francis books The dangerous tendency to reduce theological positions to political ones has always fueled divisions in the Church, and it plagues debates surrounding Pope Francis's teaching today. This collection of essays was born of a landmark international symposium designed to promote theological understanding by contextualizing the thought of Pope Francis—from his understanding of history to his theology of mission—within important theological conversations rarely heard in the US Catholic Church. Its contributors demonstrate decisively that Pope Francis's magisterium is the fruit of a profound and distinctive, yet deeply Catholic, intellectual engagement with the theological and ecclesial traditions of the Church. Contributors include: Austen Ivereigh, Archbishop Christophe Pierre, Rodrigo Guerra López, Bishop Robert Barron, Massimo Borghesi, Susan K. Wood, SCL, Rocco Buttiglione, Guzmán Carriquiry Lecour, Peter J. Casarella, Brian Y. Lee, Thomas L. Knoebel
Retrieving Origins and the Claim of Multiculturalism
This book explores the philosophical, legal, and theological roots of Western multiculturalism, that is, the encounter and coexistence of different cultures within a liberal society. Rather than concerning themselves with the particulars of cultural dialogue, the authors of this volume go deeper and question the very reality of "multiculturalism" itself. The contributors represent different cultures and faith traditions but are united in friendship and in the conviction that the Christian faith enables an authentic approach to long-standing debates on multiculturalism.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio
La formazione intellettuale di Jorge Mario Betgoglio, qui analizzata e ripercorsa per la prima volta, consente di comprendere lo sguardo complesso e poliedrico che guida l'attuale Pontificato. Formatosi alla scuola dei gesuiti, di quelli francesi in particolare, Bergoglio ha assimilato il messaggio di sant'Ignazio attraverso la lettura, «dialettica e mistica» a un tempo, di uno dei più acuti filosofi del XX secolo: Gaston Fessard. Da qui sorge l'idea del cattolicesimo come 'coincidentia oppositorum' che lo porta all'incontro con l'antropologia polare di Romano Guardini e con il pensiero del più rilevante intellettuale cattolico latinoamericano della seconda metà del '900: Alberto Methol Ferré. Si precisa, in tal modo, la prospettiva di una riflessione, originale e feconda, in grado di misurarsi con le grandi sfide della Chiesa nell'era della globalizzazione. Il testo ha potuto giovarsi, nella sua ricostruzione, di quattro interviste concesse dal Pontefice attraverso file audio.

A Prophet to the Peoples
The Global Theological Ethics book series focuses on works that feature authors from around the world, draw on resources from the traditions of Catholic theological ethics, and attend to concrete issues facing the world today. It advances the Journal of Moral Theology’s mission of fostering scholarship deeply rooted in traditions of inquiry about the moral life, engaged with contemporary issues, and exploring the interface of Catholic moral theology, philosophy, economics, political philosophy, psychology, and more. This series is sponsored in conjunction with the Catholic Theological Ethics and the World Church. The CTEWC recognizes the need to dialogue from and beyond local cultures and to interconnect within a world church. Its global network of scholars, practitioners, and activists fosters cross-cultural, interdisciplinary conversations—via conferences, symposia, and colloquia, both in-person and virtually—about critical issues in theological ethics, shaped by shared visions of hope.
Decolonial Horizons
This is the second of two volumes of essays from the Ecclesiological Investigations International Research Network's 14th International Conference focused on decolonizing churches and theology, addressing oppressions based on gender, racial, and ethnic identities; economic inequality; social vulnerabilities; climate change and global challenges such as pandemics, neoliberalism, and the role of information technology in modern society, all connected with the topic of decolonization. The essays in this volume focus on decoloniality in empire, family, and mission, written from historical, dogmatic, social scientific, and liturgical perspectives.
