ETHICS OF WAR IN CATHOLIC SOCIAL DOCTRINE
KOUDELKA, Jaroslav
The thesis deals with the ethics of war, especially from the perspective of the catholic social doctrine. It describes the historically-chronological perspective of the catholic social doctrine on the problem of war. It characterizes the fundamental Church attitudes to this problem and notices its particular reasons and postures. Together with the war problem it explains the view of the catholic social doctrine itself in respect to its development, complexity, currency and interconnection with tradition. Although the catholic social doctrine itself is not the main topic of the work, it brings a specific view of its place and position in social world order. The proof of this is the reflection coming from reality, that confirms that the catholic social doctrine is based on the principles of social justice, love and truth, that are apparent in the whole effort of the catholic social doctrine, not only in the field of war conflicts.
