Society and Social Teaching

This is a list of Catholic Christian texts on general society, economics, and politics. It includes 2 categories: (i) Christian Social Doctrine, authoritative documents by which the teaching Church applies Divine–revealed and natural–law to social concerns; and (ii) Christian Social Thought, private writings by which various thinkers explain, interpret, and in some cases suggest norms of Christian Social Teaching.

The latter will include texts from divergent and sometimes competing schools of thought (e.g., Distributist/Solidarist, Libertarian, Corporatist, Welfare-State &c. economics; Monarchist, Christian Democratic, Latin Conservative &c. politics; Confessionalist and Non-Confessionalist positions on Church-State relations). As long as their ideas don’t contradict Divine law as interpreted by His vicars (St. Matthew 16:18-19, 18:18; 1 John 4:6), they will be indexed.

Needless to say, this list is a work in progress. May it help restore all things in Christ. Viva Cristo Rey!
