The Catholic Social Imagination
Author: Joseph M. Palacios
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226645029
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
The reach of the Catholic Church is arguably greater than that of any other religion, extending across diverse political, ethnic, class, and cultural boundaries. But what is it about Catholicism that resonates so profoundly with followers who live under disparate conditions? What is it, for instance, that binds parishioners in America with those in Mexico? For Joseph M. Palacios, what unites Catholics is a sense of being Catholic—a social imagination that motivates them to promote justice and build a better world. In The Catholic Social Imagination, Palacios gives readers a feeling for what it means to be Catholic and put one’s faith into action. Tracing the practices of a group of parishioners in Oakland, California, and another in Guadalajara, Mexico, Palacios reveals parallels—and contrasts—in the ways these ordinary Catholics receive and act on a church doctrine that emphasizes social justice. Whether they are building a supermarket for the low-income elderly or waging protests to promote school reform, these parishioners provide important insights into the construction of the Catholic social imagination. Throughout, Palacios also offers important new cultural and sociological interpretations of Catholic doctrine on issues such as poverty, civil and human rights, political participation, and the natural law.

Resource Mobilization and Investment in an Islamic Economic Framework
Author: Zaidi Sattar
Publisher: International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT)
ISBN: 1565640489
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
The contemporary understanding of economic resources has almost entirely to do with those elements that are capable of meeting, either directly or indirectly, the needs of mankind. These elements, or resources, both human and natural, are the things that every state attempts, as a fundamental principle of progress and prosperity, to preserve, mobilize, and invest. In the Islamic world, in particular, this is an issue that occupies a very basic position in all development strategy and planning; particularly as, in most cases, the Islamic world continues to suffer from backwardness, and from the adverse effects of the colonialization that was itself one of the major reasons for underdevelopment in the spheres of politics, economics, and culture.
