Author: Martin Schlag<br />File Type: pdf<br />Handbook of Catholic Social Teaching employs a question and answer format, to better accentuate the response of the Churchs message to the questions Catholics have about their social role and what the Church intends to teach about it. Written in consultation with the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, the Handbook should take its place alongside the Catechism of the Social Doctrine of the Church on the shelf of informed Catholics as works that can inform what we believe and do in the public sphere.
