Pastoralne implikacje encykliki Jana Pawła II Sollicitudo rei socialis
Nadbrzeżny, Antoni (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Papieskiego Jana Pawła II, 2014)
The canonization of Pope John Paul II constitutes a really great opportunity to rediscover the value of papal social thought. In this article, the author deals with the question of pastoral implications in the encyclical Sollicitudo rei socialis issued in 1987. The first part discusses the origins and socio - political context of the papal document. The second part presents the main ideas contained in the encyclical. The author analyses the range of problems present in the m odern world, shows the integral understanding of human development and indicates the relationship between solidarity and peace. In the third and final part of the article, the author emphasizes the relevance of various aspects of the message contained in the encyclical and form ulates particular indications for pastoral work. He draws attention to the necessity to enhance th e social aspect of the Eucharist and the need to instil in believers attitudes of solidarity and responsibility for full human development, both on the individual and community level.
