Harde noot om te kraken, met soms zeer duistere verwoorden en voortdurende overlappingen. De verwijzingen naar de recente financiële crisis en naar het fenomeen van de globalisering zijn interessant, maar voor het overige voegt Benedictus weinig toe aan de sociale encyclieken van zijn voorgangers. Opvallend is dat weer alleen kerkelijke bronnen worden geciteerd (in tegenstelling tot eerste encyclieken), en dat Benedictus ervan profiteert om zijn mening te uiten over thema's die nauwelijks iets met de gekozen invalshoek te maken hebben. Neemt niet weg dat er hier en daar pareltjes van inzichten en formuleringen in staan. Perhaps the most important and well written thing I have read in years. This document has an elegance that helped convince me not only of the critical nature of the issue at hand, but also of the wisdom of the Pope and his Vatican editors. (A side effect of reading this document was realizing how pedestrian the editors at Penguin, Harper, and Simon & Schussler are.) Transcending the right/left boxes that everything else is framed with, Benedict presses forth based on biblical values that if taken seriously, will break American readers out of their current trappings. Poverty, labor, environment, justice, and ultimately meaning and purpose in daily life are given their due, not as topics for talk shows, but as the deepest concerns of the human race. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Addressing the worldwide economic crisis and the many grave problems facing humanity today, Pope Benedict XVI seeks solutions that are based on both love and truth. Only in truth, he writes in his third encyclical, can love shine forth. He envisions a society that seeks the common good; that respects life, the environment, and the dignity of human work; and that bases financial dealings on truly ethical foundations. Truth-filled love is a gift from God and so, the pope says, above all else we must turn to God in prayer, relying on his providence and mercy. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
