Dopo aver ribadito che l'orizzonte etico della dottrina Sociale della Chiesa è quello del bene comune e dopo aver illustrato le ragioni per le quali si può sostenere che la tematica economico-sociale è magna pars del pensiero di Giovanni Paolo II, il saggio focalizza l'attenzione su tre questioni specifiche. La prima concerne il rapporto tra lavoro e persona umana; la seconda riguarda le nuove povertà in ampia diffusione anche nelle società avanzate; la terza ha per oggetto il ruolo del principio di sussidiarietà nell'articolazione del nuovo modello di welfare. L'articolo si chiude con la considerazione che al cristiano non può bastare un discorso solo centrato sui valori della libertà e della giustizia. Ii di più che il cristiano fa propria è la prospettiva della società fraterna, una società cioè nella quale la carità non viene relegata alla sola sfera privata.
----------
Having stressed that the ethical horizon of Social Doctrine of the Church is funded in the notion of common good and having shown the reasons for which it is possible to maintain that socio-economic themes are a major component of John Paul II's thought, the paper focus its attention on three specific questions. First, the relation between labour and human person; second, the question of the new poverties gaining ground even in the most advanced countries; third, the peculiar role of the subsidiarity principle in the design of a new model of welfare. The article concludes with the consideration that to the Christian a discourse only based on values such as liberty and justice, is not enough. What is required on top of those values is the perspective of the principle of fraternity (not to be confused with brotherhood).
