John Paul II on Modernity, the Moral Structure of Freedom and the Future of the Free Society

Catholic Social Science Review 5:23-35 (2000)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

John Paul II neither rejects modernity nor exalts the freedom it has engendered. Rather, he affirms the modem aspiration to achieve "the completeliberation of man," but does so in terms of "the complete truth about the human being" and "the truth and love revealed to men by Jesus Christ."
