In the last few years more and more Catholics have begun taking seriously Pope Leo XIIIs teaching on the relationship between Church and state. As a result, they have come to see the fundamental deficiencies of the liberalism that has dominated Western culture for over 200 years. But if liberalism, with its doctrine that limits the concerns of the political community to merely this-worldly matters, is erroneous, what is to be put in its place? And further, how would that alternative actually look in practice? In this book, the first edition of which appeared in 1998, Thomas Storck offers a sketch of a possible Catholic political order. Although at the moment discussion of a Catholic political regime is far outside the realm of the practical, in the authors opinion it is never a waste of time to order our thinking and our ideas. Thus it is worthwhile to consider how a Catholic political order might function, what laws, institutions and policies might help it accomplish its task of protecting a Catholic culture and the faith of ordinary believers.Book specifications:Dimensions: 216 x 140Author: Thomas StorckCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 1Pages: 218Language: EnglishPublisher: Arouca PressWeight: 281 g
