Join with the Angelicum for an event celebrating Dr. Russell Hittinger\u2019s latest work, On the Dignity of Society: Catholic Social Teaching and Natural Law (Catholic University of America Press, 2024).<\/p>\n
After a brief presentation of the book, by the volume\u2019s editor, Prof. Scott Roniger (Associate Professor of Philosophy, Loyola Marymount University), Prof. Hittinger will share some personal reflections of the genesis of these essays.<\/p>\n
In the work, Hittinger presents Catholic social teaching not only as a defense of the dignity of the human person, but more fundamentally as an elucidation of the dignity of society. Human persons \u2013 as naturally familial, political, and ecclesial animals \u2013 seek their own perfection in communion. This volume represents the fruits of Hittinger\u2019s historically important body of work on Catholic moral and social philosophy and theology, rooted in Thomistic natural law theory and animated by the thought of Saint Augustine.<\/p>\n
