The Church’s Concern for Peace. The Moral-theological Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The article shows the most important aspects of the Church’s commitment to peace from the perspective of the moral theology. Preliminary considerations on the essence of peace referred to as the category of the common good and perceived as an important element of the social order, which by its nature stands for the moral order, directed the main current of reflection towards the personalistic and ethical dimensions. The compilation of peace and the truth allowed to combine the moral order with an idea of the human rights. It has been also indicated that the concern for peace ought to be free from ideology, which characterises some of the contemporary pacifistic movements. Scientific analysis confirmed that the Catholic concept of peace is built on the basis of the personalistic anthropology. The human person is the ultimate foundation of peace, upon which the entire social experience is built.
