Social Justice and Subsidiarity - Luigi Taparelli and the Origins of Modern Catholic Social Thought

Luigi Taparelli, SJ, 1793-1862 presented a neo-Thomistic approach to social, economic, and political sciences grounded in an integral conception of the human person as social animal but also as rational truth seeker. In this present book, Taparelli's ideas are evaluated both for their philosophical character but also in their historical context.
