Liberal theorists have proposed three successive approaches to resolving the problem of religious disagreement in a diverse society. The first was to propose that reason, rather than religion, should bind the society together; that individuals should be free to continue to practice their religion privately, but that religion must no longer play a guiding role in public life. The second liberal solution was to extend the prohibition to all ‘comprehensive doctrines’, whether religious or secular, and to insist that state power must only operate on the basis of ‘public reasons’ that any sensible person could in principle understand and accept. The third liberal solution has been to propose that secular reason and religious conviction operate in a deliberative dialogue with each other, in which each recognises its limitations and its reliance on the other. However, the relationship between religion and politics is today being challenged by a new development that none of these approaches can really address. This development is the re-emergence and intensification of legal and jurisdictional pluralism. Jurisdictional pluralism challenges the liberal settlement, not by threatening to ‘take over’ the state as such, but by developing alternative forms of public order that exist alongside those of the state. This development requires us to think about the relationship between religion and the state in a different way: one in which religion doesn’t simply inhabit spaces that are private while the state possesses monopolistic control over the public sphere. In this renewed religious politics, religion seeks to define, create and inhabit spaces that are just about as public as those governed by the secular state. This is a situation that our politics has only just begun to think about.","PeriodicalId":181402,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Catholic Social Thought","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133661785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kolmes","doi":"10.5840/JCATHSOC201714218","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5840/JCATHSOC201714218","url":null,"abstract":"With the release of Laudato Si (2015) Pope Francis has introduced new conceptual language into Catholic social teaching (CST), what he has called “integral ecology.” His intent appears to be grounded in the realization that “It is essential to seek comprehensive solutions which consider the interactions with natural systems themselves and with social systems” (LS, no. CXXXVIII). Pope Francis goes on to make the case that “We are faced not with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but rather with one complex crisis with is both social and environmental” (LS, no. CXXXVIII). Consequently, in order to solve this crisis we need to utilize “an integrated approach to combating poverty, restoring dignity to the excluded, and at the same time protecting nature” (LS, no. CXXXVIII). This perspective represents a major development in CST whereby the encyclical connects the dots between ecology/environment, economics and society, three essential aspects of what many in the environmental community and elsewhere see as indispensable for humanity to achieve a sustainable relationship with the Earth. While this is extremely important for articulating a Catholic vision of sustainability, that is not the direction we take in this article. Rather our intent is to use the concept of integral ecology to do three things: (1) examine a current case in the U.S. that has received significant media attention as well as notoriety—the water crisis in Flint, Michigan; (2) describe how our recent understanding of the epigenetic impacts of environmental toxins casts a new and ominous light on this crisis and on other instances of environmental toxin exposure, and (3) propose some ideas on how epigenetic research might enlarge our interpretation of basic aspects of CST highlighted in Laudato Si such as human dignity, justice and the common good.","PeriodicalId":181402,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Catholic Social Thought","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122588305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rhetoric of “irreversible changes” to the earth that is implied by the idea of the Anthropocene has struck a cultural chord way beyond its original geological scientific home by generating ongoing and heated debates in the environmental humanities. There are negative aspects in using such a term that Pope Francis manages to avoid by eschewing its use. In particular, narratives about the Anthropocene offer ambiguous portrayals of the place of humanity on the earth that has important ethical and religious consequences. These narratives edge towards a philosophical scientism beyond the confines of the geological sciencewhere the term originated. In this sense, on the one hand, they are ‘naturalistic’ in being derived from the natural sciences. On the other hand, Anthropocene narratives are also about the dominance of human beings on planet earth, hence eclipsing the category of the natural world as ‘other’","PeriodicalId":181402,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Catholic Social Thought","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123886865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
