Armut als Herausforderung die franziskanische Armutsbewegung und die Anfänge der Sozialethik
Schallenberg, Peter (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Szczecińskiego, 2013)
Am Beginn jedes neuen Pontifikates wird mit Spannung erwartet, welche thematischen Schwerpunkte der neue Pontifex herausstellt. Schon sehr schnell machte Papst Franziskus deutlich, dass die Armen und Notleidenden neu ins Zentrum der kirchlichen Praxis und der Verkündigung gerückt werden müssen. Seine Namenswahl sollte dabei also Programm sein. Der Bezug zu Franz von Assisi und damit dem Ideal der Armut ist unübersehbar wiederum ins Zentrum der Weltkirche gerückt. Dass sich die Kirche besonders gegenüber den Armen solidarisch zeigen muss, war dabei selbstverständlich nie in Vergessenheit geraten. Jene Solidarität stellt nach wie vor eine Hauptintention der katholischen Soziallehre und der Sozialethik dar. Jene Sozialethik hat sich in einem langen Prozess zu einem sich weiterhin wandelnden Korpus entwickelt, der uns heute vor Augen steht.
Capitalism and Catholic Social Ethics: From Benedict XVI to Francis with a Sideways Glance to Augustinian Liberalism
Schallenberg, Peter (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Szczecińskiego, 2022)
This article first outlines some of the basic lines of recent Catholic social ethics, as developed in Pope Francis’ encyclical letter Laudato si’ (2015). In his letter which is less fundamental but more prophetic with a strong Franciscan background, Pope Francis continues the thoughts of his predecessor Benedict XVI and Benedict’s encyclical letter Caritas in veritate (2007). In the course of criticizing a misguided reliance on a market economy (and so-called capitalism without adjectives), it is emphasized in this paper that these alone are not sufficient to promote the Common Good or understood as integral to human development and social inclusion in a global world. With a view to the challenges of our time outlined by the encyclicals, the article then wants to focus on an approach to political theology that draws on the tradition of Augustinian thought and offers a solution for the promotion of the Common Good under the circumstances of modernity. The core tenet of so-called Augustinian Liberalism is the demonstration that the central liberal principles of individual freedom and universal equality are not sufficient enough to ensure human flourishing in this world. Despite the eminent importance of democratic constitutional principles, they ultimately fail to comprehensively promote the fulfilment of human life in its individual and social dimensions. They shorten the concept of rational autonomy to self-centred freedom that absolves itself of its responsibility and value-relativist tendencies, the thinkers of Augustinian Liberalism then profile a concept of love based on the thought of St. Augustine as a normative. Their position promotes principles for the political practice of individuals and guidelines for institutions in the liberal constitutional state.
Christliches Abendland? Personalität und Sakralität als europäische Grundwerte
Schallenberg, Peter (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2019)
This article traces the constitutive significance of Christian ethics for the question of Europe‘s fundamental values, based on Augustinian theology of history and the principle of personality. The specific Christian understanding of personality, based on faith in the three-person God, is further interpreted in the following with Hans Joas as sacrality of the human person against the background of the desacralization of world and state, which is pre-determined in the Augustinian distinction between civitas Dei and civitas terrena and unfolds in modernity. The final meaning of law, natural law and morality and the human striving for happiness, which is identified with the striving for love according to Christian faith, is theologically expelled and justified as the spelling out of the sacrality of God by the human person.
