Integracja między narodami jako wyzwanie dla katolickiej nauki społecznej


Abstrakt:

Integration between nations as a challenge for catholic social teaching. In the
social teaching of the Church there is still a growing trend towards global recognition
of social problems as well as a call for the global cooperation. Globalization
is treated as a tool to enhance the well-being of humanity. At the same time the
social teaching indicates that in the control of the global market cannot participate
only national authorities or international ones, but also social forces. This is consistent
with the principle of subsidiarity, which emphasizes the role of intermediate
strength between the individual and the state and international centers. For the defense
of the common good of humanity, it is necessary to take into account the analysis
of the ethical aspect of integration processes. It points to respect the va-lues of
dignity and human rights, justice, solidarity, kindness, non-violence, peace among
people and nations. Ethics goes beyond the pragmatic calculations, which are focused
on values and universal norms.
