What is Catholic social teaching?

Video Description

You've heard it mentioned - but what is it? Here we introduce the tradition of thought called "Catholic social teaching", starting from its biblical foundations and its seven so-called "pillars," then reviewing some historical milestones since its beginnings in 1891 with the promulgation of Leo XIII's encyclical Rerum novarum. We conclude by considering a series of brief passages from Msgr. Martin Schlage's edited volume, The Handbook of Catholic Social Teaching. --- Labyrinths is an ongoing project of Dr. Jon Sozek to promote thoughtful conversation about the history of philosophy, religion, and culture on YouTube.
