Sedmak, Clemens 1971-

Enacting Catholic Social Tradition The Deep Practice of Human Dignity Clemens Sedmak - U.S.A. Orbis Books 2022 - 206tr. paperback, illustration 24 cm

Provides a needed emphasis on the fact that Catholic Social Tradition (CST) stems not from arbitrary laws laid down by Church leaders, but rather from moral guidance directly inspired by Scripture, especially the command to love Christ and the neighbor, even if doing so is extremely difficult in real-life situations. Through the use of multiple examples encountered both in parishes and in the secular world (e.g., racism, vegetarianism, taxation), the book gives helpful counsel on being mindful of particularity and contextual concerns.
