Nowy feminizm” w nauczaniu Jana Pawła II

Abstract

The teaching of John Paul II on new feminism is extremely important. The author of the paper shows the ways how to apply this teaching in the dialogue with contemporary feministic movements. The first condition for this dialogue to bring fruits is to analyse anti-feminism in the category of individual and structural sin. Once we analyse the sources of this sin, we may discover common levels for the concern about the elimination of women’s harm. The second condition of a creative dialogue is to include the category of conscience in the theory and practice of women’s dignity. Only true and right consciences of men and women can save the genius of the woman, without destroying her vocation to motherhood and the gift she can give of herself. Then one may notice the woman’s point of view in various domains of social life and use the woman’s gifts of her spirit, the gifts that supplement the civilisation of productivity with the civilisation of love.
