Abstract

This article investigates how the concept of ‘conscience’ emerged as a battleground within the French Catholic Church and as a politicized concept with implications for ideas about human rights. State-sponsored torture during the Algerian War (1954–62) prompted dissident Christians to pioneer the use of ‘individual conscience’ as a tool of resistance. The Christians of the anti-torture movement embraced the theologically informed language of conscience alongside a French, secular tradition of rights drawn from the 1789 Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. The way that Catholic dissidents thought about rights transcended the secular–religious divide; while recognizing a liberal concept of rights coming out of the French Revolution, these Catholics also insisted upon the spiritual function of individual conscience as a check upon the state. Intra-Catholic debates about conscience thus reveal the political and theological diversity within mid-twentieth-century Christianity, long assumed to have been dominated by actors on the political right, as well as the multiplicity of coexisting ways of speaking about and interpreting human rights.
基督教反酷刑运动与法国良心政治
本文探讨了“良心”概念是如何成为法国天主教会内部的一个战场,并成为一个政治化的概念,对人权思想产生了影响。阿尔及利亚战争(1954–62年)期间,国家支持的酷刑促使持不同政见的基督徒率先将“个人良知”作为抵抗工具。反酷刑运动的基督徒信奉神学上的良心语言,同时信奉1789年《人与公民权利宣言》中的法国世俗权利传统。天主教持不同政见者对权利的思考方式超越了世俗和宗教的鸿沟;这些天主教徒在承认法国大革命产生的自由主义权利观的同时,也坚持个人良知作为对国家的制约的精神功能。因此,天主教内部关于良心的辩论揭示了20世纪中期基督教的政治和神学多样性,长期以来,基督教被认为是由政治右翼行为者主导的,以及谈论和解释人权的多种共存方式。
