The two original volumes of the Encyclopedia of Catholic Social
Thought, Social Science, and Social Policy were published in 2007.
Those two volumes included 848 entries from nearly 300 contributors
and included a wide range of entries in three general categories:
entries exploring Catholic social thought at a theoretical level,
entries reflecting the learning of various social science and
humanistic disciplines as this learning relates to Catholic social
thought, and entries examining specific social policy questions.
This third, supplemental volume continues the approach of the
original two. First, the volume includes entries that explore
Catholic social thought at its broadest, most theoretical level;
for example, an entry on Pope Benedict s important social
encyclical Caritas in Veritate. Second, the volume includes entries
that discuss recent social science research that bears on issues
important to Catholic social thought; for example, an entry on the
social costs of pornography draws on recent research on the topic.
Third, the volume includes entries discussing specific issues of
social policy that have become increasingly important in recent
years; for example, an entry on embryo adoption and/or rescue. This
third volume contains 202 entirely new entries from over 100
contributors.The contributors include distinguished scholars such
as Father Robert John Araujo, S.J. (Loyola University of Chicago),
Father Kevin L. Flannery, S.J. (Gregorian University), Robert P.
George (Princeton University), William E. May (John Paul Institute
and the Culture of Life Foundation), D. Q. McInerny (Our Lady of
Guadalupe Seminary), and Michael Novak (Ave Maria University). The
work will appeal to anyone who is looking for a clear and accurate
introduction to Catholic social thought."
