Catholicism and American Political Ideologies: Catholic Social Teaching, Liberalism, and Conservatism
ISBN: 9780761869771 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the perspectives of American liberalism and conservatism in the new millennium--their general political and social philosophy and their positions in leading public issue areas--and evaluates them in light of Catholic social teaching. Before making that evaluation, it sets out the Church's teaching as it has been authoritatively set forth in documents from her Magisterium--especially the social encyclicals. It looks to recognized thinkers, writers, and spokesmen for each of the two ideologies to determine what their general philosophy is in six major, central areas: the role...

Child Abuse, Family Rights, and the Child Protective System: A Critical Analysis from Law, Ethics, and Catholic Social Teaching
ISBN: 9780810886698 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The child protective system (CPS), shaped by federal law forty years ago and run on the state and county levels in the United States, offered in utopian fashion the hope of preventing all possible child abuse or neglect. In response, legislators enacted a spate of vague laws that poorly defined such categories as "abuse" and "neglect," and granted the CPS sweeping powers to intrude into families, often on the basis of nothing more than anonymous complaints about standard childrearing practices. This arrangement, which followed from the questionable assertion of the existence of a crisis of...

Catholic Makers of America: Biographical Sketches of Catholic Statesmen and Political Thinkers in America's First Century, 1776-1876
ISBN: 9780761834120 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "This book is intended to call attention to a number of important men in the history of American Catholicism and of the American nation generally. All were prominent figures in their time. Some held important national political positions and/or had a significant impact on national political debate, while others were better known on a regional basis. All share the curious, common fate of being largely unknown, or at least not frequently thought of, in our time. Their names not only seldom come up in works of American history and political theory but are hardly familiar even to their...

The Education of Catholic Americans
ISBN: 9781412852906 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Belief in universal education as the means to prevent divisions among social classes has long been an important element in American society. This highly-regarded sociological study refutes prejudices against Catholic education, such as claims that Catholic schools are authoritarian, and that they no longer have a valuable role to play in society. Andrew M. Greeley and Peter H. Rossi tackle issues about Catholic education at all levels: elementary, secondary, and college. These include reasons why families have (and have not) sent their children to Catholic schools, comparisons among different...
