The goal is not only to explain what the Church really says, but alsohow it got to its current position and who it is arguing with. For each topic, Counsels of Imperfection provides biblical, historical and a broad philosophical background. In the spirit of a doctrine always in development, Counsels of Imperfection pointsout both strong-points and imperfections in the teaching. Th is divided into 11 chapters. First comes an introduction to ever-changing modernity and the unchanging Christian understanding of human nature and society. Then come two chapters on economics, including a careful delineation of the Catholic response to socialism and capitalism. The next topic is government (Church and State, War, and democracy and related topics). Next two chapters on ecology.
