This title argues that scholars and proponents of the modern Catholic social tradition can gain from the use of ancient texts for contemporary socially ethical formation. Although it is impossible to expect a one-to-one correspondence between the social ideas of early church theologians, such as Augustine, and those of modern Catholic social thought, this book offers four hermeneutical models that will facilitate a fruitful dialogue between the two worlds.
