Publisher's Synopsis
In essays reflecting the broad themes that have characterized his career, Charles Curran examines developments in Catholic social thought, sexual morality, and the question of reform and renewal in the church. His overview of Catholic Social Teaching includes a personal response to the challenge of "white privilege," and a fascinating treatment of human rights---"an excellent example of discontinuity and even error in the Catholic tradition" as the church has moved from hostility to enthusiastic support for human rights.
