"The Teachings of Modern Roman Catholicism on Law, Politics,
and Human Nature" examines how modern Catholic thinkers have
answered the most pressing political, legal, and ethical questions
of our time. It discusses the enduring teachings of important
Catholic intellectuals of the late nineteenth and twentieth
centuries. Leading contemporary scholars analyze these thinkers'
views on the nature and purpose of law and authority, the limits of
rule and obedience, the care of the needy and innocent, the ethics
of war and violence, and the separation of church and state, among
other themes. A diverse and powerful portrait of Catholic legal and
political thought, this volume underscores the various ways
Catholic intellectuals have shaped modern debates over the family,
the state, religion, and society. The book focuses on the writings
of Pope Leo XIII (1810-1903); Jacques Maritain (1882-1973); John
Courtney Murray (1904-1967); Pope John XXIII (1881-1963); Gustavo
Guti?rrez (b. 1928); Dorothy Day (1897-1980); and Pope John Paul II
(1920-2005).
