Cardinal Bertone Book to Be Presented in Moscow
25-09-2008
ROME, SEPT. 24, 2008 (Zenit.org).- The Moscow presentation of a book written by Benedict XVI's secretary of state is being considered a "historic event."
Written in Italian and Russian, "L'Etica del Bene Comune nel Pensiero Sociale della Chiesa (The Ethics of the Common Good in the Social Thought of the Church), by Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, will be presented in Moscow on Friday. The volume was published Tuesday by Libreria Editrice Vaticana.
Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk and Kaliningrad, the president of the Department of External Affairs of the Moscow Patriarchate, wrote the prologue.
Editor Pierluca Azzaro described the work as a "manifesto for concrete common action based on a shared principle: Spiritual and material well-being sustain one another or fall together. At the root of conflicts and injustices that run the risk of disintegrating the community is an essentially atheist, materialist and egoistic vision of man."
The presentation will take place in the context of a round table on economics and Christianity at the 5th Anniversary Convention of the Russian International Studies Association.
