| Summary: | The Catholic Church’s teaching on the development of the nations is
generally included in two documents:
Populorum Progressio
by Pope Paul VI
and
Sollicitudo rei socialis
by John Paul II. This year marks the 25
th
anniversary
of publishing the Encyclical
Sollicitudo rei socialis,
hence the motive
for writing this article. A characteristic feature of the teaching of John Paul II,
which we
fi
nd in this Encyclical, is the ethical dimension of development. The
Pope repeatedly drew attention to the inequitable distribution of material goods in
the world. He stressed that “True development, in keeping with the speci
fi
c needs
of the human being – man or woman, child, adult or old person implies, especially
for those who actively share in this process and are responsible for it, a lively
awareness of the value of the rights of all and of each person. It likewise implies a
lively awareness of the need to respect the right of every individual to the full use
of the bene
fi
ts offered by science and technology”
Sollicitudo rei socialis
