Book Description
La presente obra tiene como objetivo dar a conocer los contenidos fundamentales de uno de los tesoros más importantes, y quizá también de los más desconocidos de la Iglesia católica: su doctrina social. Con frecuencia se piensa que únicamente es asequible para especialistas, dada la extensión de sus documentos e incluso por el lenguaje complejo que a veces utiliza. Sin embargo, se trata de un rico patrimonio vivo y actual que nos puede ayudar no solo a entender una parte importante de la cultura y de la sociedad, sino también servir como fuente de inspiración para afrontar los más diversos problemas que se nos plantean día tras día. Por eso va dirigida especialmente a los estudiantes que tengan que formarse en esta materia, pero también a todos los que deseen iniciarse en su conocimiento. Además, tanto los contenidos como el enfoque e incluso el estilo son el resultado de varios años de experiencia docente y de contacto directo con las preocupaciones de miles de alumnos en la Universidad Pontificia Comillas, que se han introducido en la Doctrina Social de la Iglesia, y de los que al mismo tiempo hemos recibido valiosas sugerencias para hacer que toda esta rica enseñanza eclesial en el ámbito social pueda ser comprendida por quienes no se dediquen expresamente a ella. Porque tenemos la convicción de que la preocupación por las distintas cuestiones sociales es fundamental tanto en la trayectoria vital como en la vida profesional de cada persona.

The Soul of the Nation
Author: Gregorio Alonso
Publisher: Berghahn Books
ISBN: 180539598X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 331
Book Description
Religion and politics have historically clashed in modern Spain but the complexity of the controversial and sometimes violent relationships between Catholic values and modern political regimes continue to ride a precarious line of spiritual accommodation versus public policy. Leading experts on religious Spanish tradition and recent historiographic findings set out to define and interrogate grey areas in the last two centuries beyond the reductive conventional notion of an ever-warring "Two Spains." The Soul of the Nation unravels the role of religion in the country's public life following the imperial crisis of 1808 when the Catholic Monarchy put the role of the Church at heart of political and cultural debates.

"The one source that sets reference collections on Latin American studies apart from all other geographic areas of the world.... The Handbook has provided scholars interested in Latin America with a bibliographical source of a quality unavailable to scholars in most other branches of area studies." —Latin American Research Review Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field.

Book Description
This book explores the life, mission, and writings of martyred Salvadorian archbishop St. Óscar Romero in the light of contemporary work for justice and human development Many historians, theologians, and scholars point to St. Óscar Romero as one of the most perceptive, creative, and challenging interpreters of Catholic social teaching in the post–Vatican II period, while also recognizing the foundational importance of Catholic social teaching in his thought and ministry.

Radical Solidarity
Author: Lisa G. Materson
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469679930
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Radical Solidarity tells the riveting story of Ruth Reynolds (1916–89), a white pacifist from South Dakota who became a stalwart ally of nationalist revolutionaries during Puerto Rico's long struggle for independence. Reynolds dedicated her life to ending US control of the archipelago. She testified before Congress and the UN, organized fellow North Americans, investigated the brutal tactics used by the colonial state to quash independence sentiment, and was incarcerated as a political prisoner. Lisa G. Materson introduces the concept of "radical solidarity" to describe Reynolds's powerful model for globally engaged activism. Guided by her vision of allyship, Reynolds developed deep bonds with the Puerto Rican nationalist women with whom she was imprisoned, collaborated across ideological divides with revolutionary leaders, and established lasting relationships with civil rights lawyers, political exiles, and New Left activists. Her radical solidarity enabled her to remain a tireless champion for Puerto Rico's independence through five decades of hope, disappointment, and political change. Her life reveals the price paid by those who supported an independent Puerto Rico and sheds light on the possibilities of working across differences in the face of US state-sanctioned violence and colonialism.

Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226703592
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
In this book, Ana Y. Ramos-Zayas explores how Puerto Ricans in Chicago construct and perform nationalism. Contrary to characterizations of nationalism as a primarily unifying force, Ramos-Zayas finds that it actually provides the vocabulary to highlight distinctions along class, gender, racial, and generational lines among Puerto Ricans, as well as between Puerto Ricans and other Latino, black, and white populations. Drawing on extensive ethnographic research, Ramos-Zayas shows how the performance of Puerto Rican nationalism in Chicago serves as a critique of social inequality, colonialism, and imperialism, allowing barrio residents and others to challenge the notion that upward social mobility is equally available to all Americans—or all Puerto Ricans. Paradoxically, however, these activists' efforts also promote upward social mobility, overturning previous notions that resentment and marginalization are the main results of nationalist strategies. Ramos-Zayas's groundbreaking work allows her here to offer one of the most original and complex analyses of contemporary nationalism and Latino identity in the United States.
