Catholic social thought

"Catholic Social Thought presents detailed commentary and response to the Vatican's 2005 Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, with contributions from outstanding American scholars. Addressing theology, social theory, the family, economy, government, labor, global society, gender, peace, and the environment, the various authors explore the core theology, explain the Compendium's themes and arguments, and apply their own intellectual powers to applications of its teachings. Some of the chapters are largely expository, some more critical. Some operate from a standard of magisterial assent in conformity with Ad Tuendam Fidem, others do not. Together the chapters represent the range of Catholic thinking on social issues in the American church today." --Book Jacket.
