Descrição
Resumo:This research in Religious Studies aims to analyze the concept of “the common good” in Pope Francis’ encyclicals Laudato Si' (Praise Be to You) and Fratelli Tutti (All Brothers), as well as highlight the evolution of this concept in social encyclicals from the perspective of including the poor and questioning the dominant economic system, which causes the exclusion of people and degradation of the environment. These themes were developed and supported throughout the four chapters of this dissertation. This research shows that Pope Francis emphasizes the option for the poor, basing his pontificate on the Sacred Scriptures and Catholic Tradition, particularly the Second Vatican Council and the Conferences of the Bishops of Latin America and the Caribbean. In Latin America, the biblical sources were interpreted in a circular relationship between faith and reality. The “see-judge-act” method was crucial for this hermeneutics that Pope Francis experienced. This research culminates with an analysis of the encyclicals Laudato Si' and Fratelli Tutti, followed by the exhortation Laudate Deum (Praise God), using planetary conditions as a reading key, especially ecological and political aspects, the contradiction of the economic system that generates death, isolation, and conflict, and world organization using a doctrine of multilateralism to achieve the good of all. Pope Francis proposes that with planetary actions and the involvement of social movements and each and every one, it will be possible to care for Our Common Home, the Earth, with a society focused on the common good
