Marcin}, number={Tom 8}, pages={25-46}, journal={Studia Nauk Teologicznych PAN}, howpublished={online}, year={2013}, publisher={Polskia Akademia Nauk - Komitet Nauk Teologicznych}, abstract={The main task of the paper is to analyse pope Benedict XVI’s social teaching on poverty as introduced in the encyclical letter ‘Caritas in veritate’. While the methodo-logical language of the papal teaching is anthropological and theological in character, the document uses its own interdisciplinary approach that is characteristic of Catholic Social Teaching. Consequently such a Christian reflection on social issues like pover-ty, inequality, marginalisation and globalisation can be compared with other social fin-dings. In the global context the pope identifies growing economic inequalities but also the advantages of cooperation within the global economy. The analysis also discerns the theories of social development that are convergent with the papal social diagnosis. Finally, comparing the pope’s social teaching with some studies in economy, sociolo-gy and political sciences, the author of the paper examines the possibility to construct an interdisciplinary link between Catholic Social Teaching and other social sciences.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Poverty in a Globalizing World in the Perspective of the Social Teaching of Pope Benedict XVI and Social Sciences}, URL={http://sd.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/98019/PDF/Lisak.pdf}, doi={10.24425/snt.2013.112754}, keywords={Catholic Social Teaching, Catholic social thought, interdisciplinary, social sciences, theories of development, globalisation, poverty, inequalities}, }
