Keywords: political philosophy; Catholic Social Teaching; state; justice; social justice;

Summary/Abstract: The present research is focused on the idea of ”social justice” in the Catholic Social Teaching and the sense that is often given to it. Another important thing is how the understanding of this idea influences the concept of the political community. Catholic doctrine will be compared here with a brief overview of the solutions developed by other traditions of social reflection in this regard. As the reference points will serve some propositions coming from the liberal and leftist perspectives. Because of the large scale of the problem, it will be necessary to limit the presentation to only several selected topics.
