|
Provides an enlightening tour through the Catholic Church's social teaching regarding democratic capitalism. It analyzes the popes' social encyclicals from Leo XIII's Rerum Novarum (1891), through John Paul II's Centesimus Annus a century later, and finally to Benedict XVI's recent Caritas in Veritate. It reveals that the Church's teaching has evolved in certain respects - particularly in its judgment on socialism.
