Synopsis

Catholics traditionally have relied on the definition of justice supplied by Thomas Aquinas. Yet recent historical developments complicate this medieval conception of justice and demand a new definition. Rethinking Justice in Catholic Social Thought draws on a range of traditions, from African, Hindu, and Buddhist understandings of justice to Latin American theological and Scriptural readings of justice to develop a new conception of justice. The result is a definition of justice as a lived experience of communal life with freedom and dignity for all and by equitable access to the common goods of the community. Contributing authors offer a conception of justice that is coherent, comprehensive, faithful to the tradition, responsive to the best contemporary insights, suitable for confronting pressing injustices, and clear enough to be accessible to non-experts.
