Man and work according to the social doctrine of the Church, particularly in the thought of John Paul II

Abstract

In this essay, the author explores John Paul II’s thought on human work, and argues that, just as the Jesuit Henrich Pesch and members of his study group contributed directly to the preparation of Pius XI’s Quadragesimo Anno in 1931, Pietro Pavan helped advance John Paul II’s own thinking about man and work. Tondini draws our attention to Dignitatis Humanae from the Second Vatican Council wherein, he asserts, there is to be found a cultural harmony between Pavan and John Paul II.
