PHIL 307S - Catholic Social and Political Philosophy

Credits: 3
The social teaching of the Catholic Church-its teaching on political, economic, and legal justice, human dignity and rights, and the requirements of the common good-is a key part of its moral teaching. Topics covered will include Catholic teaching on democracy and religious freedom and other human rights, and the Church’s critique of socialism and collectivism, laissez-faire capitalism and social Darwinism; scientific materialism and secularism; and expressive individualism, with its defenses of private property, the regulated market economy and “subsidiarity.”
